]]> A dream for any pet owner is being able to take their furry friend wherever they go. Unfortunately, that isn’t always practical due to reasons beyond their control. But, embroidery artist Sara Barnes came up with the second-best thing.

Through her studio Bear&Bean, named after her cats Bear and Bean, Barnes creates adorable embroidered pet portrait patches. Pet owners can place a patch on their bag or piece of clothing and feel like their beloved pet is always there, watching them.

Best of all, these patches feature stick-on backing, meaning you can place them on any fabric without stitching. Barnes also embroiders the patches directly on pieces of clothing if her customers prefer that.

While Barnes has been passionate about animals and art for as long as she can remember, she started creating embroidered pet portrait patches almost by accident.

Her husband was cleaning out his closet and didn’t know what to do with one collared shirt he didn’t wear anymore. Barnes decided to stitch a pair of kittens on the collars and share it with social media. It wasn’t long before people started asking if she could do their pets on collars as well and she hasn’t looked back since.

Just one glance at Barnes’ previous creations and it becomes clear how much effort she invests into these patches. They are masterfully created and strikingly resemble the pets they are based on. Check out more of them below.

]]> Embroidery is gaining traction in contemporary art, and we witness numerous talented artists who push the limits of what can be done with threads and needles. One of them is Yuliya Kucherenko, who creates awesome embroidered lifelike jellyfish.

Watching Kucherenko’s embroidery art, it is hard not to think that her subjects could easily jump out of the canvas and join their kind in the ocean. In order to achieve this effect and create realistic and colorful jellyfish, she uses numerous techniques including beading, needle felting, and thread painting. She also attaches other fabric to her works in order to enhance the impression.

Kucherenko also pays close attention to the presentation of her work. She creates stunning and carefully planned backgrounds that perfectly complement each of her creations.

Check out her works below.

]]> We saw numerous times that embroidery artists can do some pretty amazing and impressive things with threads and needles. But the work of Danielle Clough might top all of that.

While many embroiderers tend to be inspired by nature or fashion, this South Africa-based artist took a different route and chose pop culture as her main source of inspiration. Clough creates impressive embroidery portraits of pop culture icons like Fresh Prince from Bel Air, The Dude and Notorious B.I.G that are incredibly detailed. Besides this, she also occasionally does embroidery flower arrangements as well as other motifs like skulls and animals.

Check out some of Clough’s works below.
