I’m seeing the misconception, in recent comments, that stitching by hand is ‘hard work’.
It’s not hard, at all - it just takes time & patience and has the bonus effect of relaxing creativity!
Stitches needn’t be perfect or it’ll look machine made…and would loose the charm!
As with all things you practice, you get better with time.

Japanese artist Nana Akua photographed her grandmother's embroidery folk art called Temari.
A colourful thread-wrapped & embroidered temari ball is given as a token of love and good luck to family and friends.
