Arcane is not a subtle show and I am not complaining in the slightest.

Silco really pulled a jinx and accidently killed one of his found family members, either with a bomb or by stoking the enforces rage whilst trying to help them. And then Vander took out his rage on Silco and tried to kill him (something Vander clearly regretted, but dam man) like it's no wonder Silco imprinted on Jinx so hard, they practically have the exact same backstory.

It could also explain why he hates Vi so much, as aside from her ruining his plans she's like the second coming of Vander to him. So, he ended pushing all of his unresolved hatred to Vander onto her, it actually explains why he went so feral during the dinner party.

Silco and Jinx even have the same hair like this is not funny, at this point I wouldn't even be surprised if Silco also used to make bombs and gadgets in the past.

Embroidery 101

Introduction:

Embroidery is a craft that uses thread to decorate fabric (and other materials). It's a great way to spruce up a garment, customise objects, and to hide mends you've made!

Embroidery is usually done with embroidery floss, but depending on the base material you're working on, you could also use yarn, ribbons, or plain old sewing thread. Don't be afraid to experiment!

Embroidery is easier to do on taut fabric than limp fabric. That's why most people use embroidery hoops. While not strictly necessary, a hoop will make your life so much easier.

Using the right needle will help, too. Use a crewel needle if you're working with embroidery floss, a chenille needle if you're working with ribbon or yarn, or a tapestry needle if you're doing cross-stitch embroidery on open-weave fabrics.

While there are many types of embroidery from all over the world, this post will focus on some basic stitches you can use in your own work.

Basic embroidery stitches:

For a more thorough overview of embroidery stitches, check out these embroidery tutorials by Mary Corbet's Needle 'n Thread.

The following images show some of the most basic stitches:

The 16 stitches in the images above can be combined into any shape or form you want. You might recognise some from my hand sewing post: embroidery is a type of hand sewing, after all.

You don't need to know all of these to be able to make beautiful things. Even just one of these is a great start for a project.

This sampler by Sew Nancy shows how these basic stitches can be used to outline shapes or form flowers, for example.

Fiorelila used a combination of the stem stitch, satin stitch, lazy daisy, and french knots to spruce up this sweater:

And this person used lazy daisies to add some flair to their jeans:

Embroidery for visible mending:

Embroidery is a useful tool to hide mends you've made, or to even accentuate them if that's your style. This is called visible mending. While this is a topic that deserves a post on its own, here are some quick examples:

Like this fix by Redditor Takemythyme who embroidered a rose over a hole in a knit fabric:

Or like how this person has spruced up their jeans repairs with embroidery:

In this example, The Woolery Guy chose to use flower embroidery to make a hole in a knit fabric look like it was there by design:

Conclusion:

Embroidery is a useful skill to give new life to your wardrobe. You can use it to give some flair to items you've grown bored off, or even to mend your clothes.

Once you've got a few basic stitches under your belt, the possibilities are endless. Be creative and have fun with it!

Good luck and feel free to show me your work!
