Full Finished Embroidery and Embroidery Patterns For Sale

Both Bead and Floss Embroidery

Fully finished embroidery and embroidery patterns for sale online in my Etsy store: Moonlighter Media

Why the two different names? I started selling my own personally made embroidered pieces under my original Ebay name echoforsberg. The name stuck and I've used it all over the place ever since. However, I also provide graphic design and social media management services in my other sideline. As the name states, it's a moonlighting effort after hours and on weekends as I have a regular full-time job.

Second Athabascan Baby Belt

This is my second ever Athabascan style baby belt. I just love Icelandic poppies so I decided to make some poppy motifs for this belt. I decided I am going to make a baby belt to give to each of my three children. Although I never used one of these belts before, I thought it would be nice to make something traditional to pass down to my kids. I haven't started my third one yet - I think I may use berries for that one. As of today (9/26/21) I have not found a good backing material. I don't have any smoked moosehide. The beadwork book I've seen these baby belts in says a lot of beadwork from back in the day was mounted on something called broadcloth. I think I will draw up and bead the third belt and then figure out what type of backing to use for both of them.
