Tolkien embroidery + Battlestar Galactica

[cecile]

I've always liked the emblem of Gondor, the white tree with seven stars, so I embroidered it on a t-shirt:

You must have the patience of a saint! How long did that take you?

It turned out really well. :)

Thank you!

It took me around 20 hours of work for the tree, and probably even more than that for the other one, but I don't know exactly. It was difficult to do, I had to take the sleeves apart to make the embroidery easier, so I only did a little bit at a time, over the course of a few months...

Twenty hours!!! I have a tough time finding the patience for any project whose completion I can't guarantee in one sitting (planning, though, is another story). Tip of the hat to you!

OH MY.

WOW.

Thank you! HALDIR! I love your icon :) !

[gothrockrulz]

Glad to hear it! Much as I love Legolas, I'm afraid people give too much attention to that Mirkwood prince, and too little to Haldir. :)

Thank you!

Wow!! **bows to you** Your embroidery is AMAZING! And both shirts look hella awesome!!

Do like the idea of something just being on the sleeve of the shirt...that's actually pretty cool!

[cecile]

Thank you!

I've made several tshirts like that, with only the sleeves embroidered, it's a bit complicated because you have to take the sleeve apart beforehand, but it looks great!
