The post The Artful Possum’s Animal Embroidery is the Best Kind of Quirky appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>The Artful Possum is the alter ego of the British embroidery artist Emily, who’s come a long way since kicking off her embroidery journey in 2021. She’s completely self-taught, and one of her favorite things about embroidery is that anyone can get into it and learn the basics at their own pace.
Emily had a pretty clear vision for her embroidery creations from the get-go, and the name of her brand perfectly captures what her art is all about. Opossums are her most common subjects, but we’ve seen many other animals grace her adorable hoops, including foxes, rabbits, mice, and otters.
Since Emily’s hoops take countless hours to finish, her embroidery is not for sale, but her fans can buy stickers, hoodies, shirts, tote bags, and other products inspired by her art. She’s also using her platform to inspire other people to get into embroidery by selling patterns and tutorials inspired by her most iconic designs on her Etsy page.

]]>McGarrity enjoys creating embroidery art centered on animals, which is something we had the opportunity to see countless times before. However, she still manages to make her works look fresh and stand out thanks to the use of vibrant color palettes.
“Animals are a viral subject, so I like to add my own ‘flavor’ to a painting by reinterpreting them with various color palettes,” McGarrity shared in a recent interview. “I still feel like I’m getting the hang of things, so I enjoy experimenting with a wide range of stitches and techniques.”
Fiber art was something that McGarrity always appreciated, and she engaged in its various forms over the years. However, it was embroidery that ultimately captured her attention, and she has been making embroidery art for the past three years.
Thanks to her dedication and continuous effort, McGarrity brought her embroidery skills to an impressive level. Her works, which can take days to complete, are complex, and detailed, and can be easily mistaken for a painting. Scroll down to enjoy more of them.
