Following the success of my first embroidery: [url=http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=838344][img_thumb]http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/3342/62333848.jpg[/img_thumb][/url] [url=http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=838344](click here for original thread.)[/url] I work at a store that sells sewing machine and sewing machine accessories, serger machines and embroidery machines. While there I have a lot of down time, in which I do things like this. I was able to convert an image into an embroidery file, with the help of my co-worker, and put it on a machine to do this. I took pictures while it was stitching on my phone, but I am yet to be able to get it on my computer. I now present to you, the Facepunch logo, EMBROIDERED!

I will now except my high member status :smug:
Simply awesome logo. Would have been awesomer if you stitched it yourself however Also cool that you get to do shit like that when it gets slow
:smugdog: embroidery please.

[QUOTE=Octo pie;20927356] That has been asked alot but like I said, I need a good sized, smoothed out version of it.[/QUOTE] I haven't had a reason to use adobe illustrator in a while, so I figured I would make some use out of it. Hopefully this is big enough for you, otherwise I included a photoshop compatible .EPS: [img_thumb]http://filesmelt.com/dl/smugdoghuge.png[/img_thumb] [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/smugdog.eps[/url]

The next time I ask for an image to be converted, im using this one. and yes, it is big enough, way too big. When I say big, it doesn;t have to be that huge, but it will still work.
Nice sewing sir.
[QUOTE=EvilMelon;20936913]Nice sewing sir.[/QUOTE] Thanks. Also attention! The Smugdog has been done. It is the version of him with the sunglasses and I did it in a new style, cross stitching. Since it is pixelated (I didn't use the vector) each cross stitch represents a pixel (but it is enlarged) I will get pic, and make a thread tomorrow.
[QUOTE=Octo pie;21045472] Since it is pixelated (I didn't use the vector)[/QUOTE] :colbert: But it's cool that you actually did the patch. But why not just post the picture in here tommorrow, rather than make a new thread?
[QUOTE=HeroicPillow;21046430]:colbert: But it's cool that you actually did the patch. But why not just post the picture in here tommorrow, rather than make a new thread?[/QUOTE] Because I want to feel special:frown: but I get what you are saying, however, if I did post it in here, the thread would have a misleading title. I'll make an embroidery emporium or something for all of mine and for future ones to come. Also, I will probably use your vector still though. I think cross stitch ones don't look quite as good. So I hope to do the normal style with that.
