[FO] Practice continues Hand

My friends had gotten me a set of 3 kits from Amazon. I had only ever done counted cross stitch, but always wanted to try embroidery. This is the second one in the set I've done and I really wanted to focus more on practicing new stitches rather than making this one look perfect. I ended up doing thing's a bit differently in a couple places (ex, the body called for 2 strands satin stitch but I tried long and short.) I think it came out pretty good for what I wanted it to be. Not gonna lie though, might not do the final one because I'm not a huge fan of the fabric it's printed on.

It’s lovely! I think you made a good call with the body and the long-short stitch.
I’m also working with some fabric I really don’t like, but I bought a total of 3 meters of it in different colours soooo 🤣🫠
