First project ;)
Any feedback and comments are appreciated.
First project
Power has been out since yesterday, so I had nothing to do but finally finish my first project. Doesn't look great, but we all start somewhere I guess
Deign to finished product
The patterns I originally drew on my iPad, and the art I made with them 😃 I use the app Procreate for my drawing software
Finally done w my week of markets and moving on to some commissions, putting my products online, and then figuring out what local birds I wanna embroidery

I think my loops are too big :c
Hi everyone! I’m really new to punch needle and I’m not sure if I’m using the right needle or yarn size. I feel like my loops are really big especially when I compare my work to tutorials I watch! I included a picture of a mug rug I’ve started. Any advice is appreciate!
I made a snoopy brooch with embroidery floss :)
he'll be for sale on my Etsy soon! https://etsy.com/shop/shopchlomo
Punch needle with fine thread?
I've seen people do punch needle work with thread and fine needles. What kind of fabric is used? The stitch doesn't hold on monk fabric.
Flowers
Another try - a little gift I made for my friend! There are lots of mistakes but i still think it's cute and was fun to do.
Does anyone have tips on how to glue the back/what glue to use? The back of mine looks ROUGH and I have to lay a book overtop while the glue dries because it doesn't stay put ☹️
Also any tips on curved edges? It was a struggle
Displaying flat side
Is there a good way to display pieces showing the flat side rather than the loops? I much prefer the clean look but my loops on the back are too bulky and make it hard to add any backing/display it.
Any tips??
My second project... proud!
I think this is technically the 'back'??? But i like it
Welcome sign
started punch needling our wedding welcome sign!! numbers need to be cleaned up but weeeee
Sweet baby boy
I made this for my brother for his sweet big handsome dog that passed recently.
I am fairly new to punch needle (this is the third thing I have tried) but excited to share it in this community! I forgot that the sketch would be flipped, oh well haha
How to stop punching into other loops???
Please help 😫 is there any way i can fix this? Will it sort out after i snip all the loops??
First time doing da tang
Bought a kit on Amazon and uploaded a video on YouTube of me trying it out… pretty messy but I still think it’s pretty. lmk what y’all think!
Something I did yesterday
Front, back and the design I used. I was bed rotting yesterday since the weatber was terrible so I made myself be crafty while I watched a show.
The eyes are a bit wonky T_T
Did you know you can punch needle directly into a Jean jacket? Made this for my best friend!
Cradily 💚
DIY frame?
I brought a kit off Temu and the hoop it comes with is a bit big for the designs and the hoops I have are either too big or too small. Is there a way for me to make my own frame or hoop or something?
My first project: A 60's-inspired lion patch
This is my first attempt at punch needle and it is made with embroidery floss (the full 6 strands). It took a lot more floss than I expected, but I think it looks pretty good.
Is embroidery floss what people typically use with an Ultra Punch needle? Or is there some other kind of thread that is more common?
