Yay for grease stains!
About six months into owning my nice, crisp white shirt from H&M, I managed to get a nice, prominent grease stain on it that refused to come out. So I decided to cover it instead!
Given that this is practically the first embroidery I've ever done, and I did it completely free-hand, using a mason jar lid and a broccoli rubber band for an embroidery hoop, I'm rather pleased! It did pucker a little, as you can see, but since the shirt has some spandex in it I think that would be hard to avoid.
Here's the full effect:
Woo! Fancy new work blouse, and during a buy-nothing month to boot!
