The stitching itself is going well, the most difficult part has been finding where to place things and sewing on the clay, I'm worried about filling up all of the space.

# data[].attributes.body
What is going well for me is putting the clay on. The most difficult thing is figuring out what kind of  stitches to do. I am avoiding the not stitch.

2. The overall look of my piece is going well for me. I was concerned at first how the colors would come together but I think the vibrant pink and green pieces make the piece pop.
3. The most difficult part was probably embroidering dashed lines because you do not want them at awkward or uneven lengths, but you also need to make sure it flows together well.
4. I am avoiding adding more lines to my piece because I feel like it will take away from my piece. I also think there is a good balance between lines and shape.

2. The stitching and layout has gone pretty well for me.
3. The most difficult thing would be just trying to get everything to compliment each other and look nice.

1.The clay is going well for me.
2. Stitching in the direction I want to go is kind of difficult.
3. No there is nothing I am avoiding nor concerned about.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like my straight stitches are going pretty well for me especially on the triangle mountains. The most difficult part for me has been trying to make sure it is non representational  and making sure I have the right amount of different stitches. The thing I am avoiding is the clay pieces because I’m not really sure what I want to do with them. I also really need to redo the fourth tree on the left but I keep putting that off.

# data[].attributes.body
2) the stitching is going really well for me and I find it easy to do.
3) the most difficult thing for me has been figuring out what clay shapes/ pieces will go well with my stitches.
5) no, there is not anything I am avoiding.

# data[].attributes.body
2. What is going well for you?
Something that is going well for me is getting the right lines of embroidery that I want (for example curved lines).
3. What has been the most difficult part?
Definitely getting smooth as possibly shapes with my clay (had to restart some).
4. Is there anything you are concerned about or avoiding? Why?
Maybe the most concerned I am is the color scheme and if it works/flows nicely. Other than that I wouldn't say I'm avoiding anything.

Embroidering is going well.
I let some clay dry because i already stitched it in, now i cant attach more to it. I am trying  to avoid using too much clay so i can show the water color under it

1. The stitching has been going well for me.
2. The most difficult part is trying to keep my stitching straight and even.
3. I am avoiding adding more types of stitches.

# data[].attributes.body
The stitching is going well. I think the most difficult part has been deciding where to place things. There isn't anything I'm too concerned about at the moment.

# data[].attributes.body
The clay pieces went well when I was stitching them in. Only one broke off but I got it placed back. The difficult part for me is figuring out where to place the rest of the clay pieces. I’m slightly avoiding the rest of the project because I don’t have a clear idea of what it will look like.

# data[].attributes.body
I really like all of your different shapes. They’re not all the same but they are really cool and they all go really well with each other!  -Tori

# data[].attributes.body
Stitching has been going well for me and I haven’t really messed up. The most difficult is making the shapes and not messing them up this is also what I’ve been avoiding.

# data[].attributes.body
I like your shapes too. The colors and shapes kind of reminds me of an 80's video game! I would suggest more stitching. I would look into the satin stitch- it's an easy one and fills up a lot of space.

# data[].attributes.body
2.My clay shapes has been the easiest.
3. Stitching has been the hardest for me.
4. I'm concerned on getting this done in time.

2. What is going well for you?
The stitching has been really fun for me.
3. What has been the most difficult part? The painting of the cloth was difficult and frustrating.
4. Is there anything you are concerned about or avoiding? Why?
I'm concerned about ruining it once I add more embroidery because the practice ones were very difficult for me.

# data[].attributes.body
What is going well for you?
I think that mine is starting to come together and I have finished the clay shapes and I can start focusing on stitching and other details.

What has been the most difficult part?
The most difficult part has been stitching the clay pieces on, they keep breaking and my purple clay got a little dry so that got kind of hard to work with.

Is there anything I have been concerned about or avoiding?
I have been nervous that I would run out of thread. I think I will actually since I never got a second thing of thread. I hope I can finish stitching on the clay shapes with the thread I have and then will probably go find another thread in my house for other stitching. I'm not sure really though, I will just have to wait and see what happens I guess.

# data[].attributes.body
I really like the colors you chose for the background. I goes really well with the colors of your clay! I also really like all of the shapes that you made with the clay!  -Tori

# data[].attributes.body
I really like the way you did the ombré of the watercolor, I think it really enhances the piece. -maddie k

# data[].attributes.body
I really like the way that you have displayed everything together. Everything is spread out and it looks pleasing. Your color choices also compliment the shapes you use! -Maria Anselment

# data[].attributes.body
I love the designs you made with the clay in the middle! It's really funky and adds some flair to the almost symmetrical stitching.

# data[].attributes.body
I like your design and the colors you chose. Mitchell

# data[].attributes.body
I really like your clay pieces, it’s very unique and the star shaped are very well done. -maddie k

# data[].attributes.body
I really love your stitching so far! It’s a really cool pattern and it works well with your clay pieces that you have done!  -Tori

I like the colors you chose and how all of them go well with each other. Mitchell

I like the design and the colors go together well. Mitchell

1. Everything is going well for me .
2. Putting it together was difficult.
3.Some of the stitching part is what I avoided.

# data[].attributes.body
Your clay shapes are good, maybe make a few more that are a lot smaller to balance out the piece as a whole? You also need a lot more stitching!

# data[].attributes.body
This is looking great. Are you going to put anything under the triangle shapes ? Maybe even just a few really thin lines of clay to balance everything out.

# data[].attributes.body
Your clay shapes are looking good, they are very vibrant! I want to see a lot more stitching. I would suggest looking into the satin stitch- it's an easy one and fills up a lot of space.

# data[].attributes.body
Im liking your stitching a lot so far, I want to see more of it though! Lots of stitching still needed.

# data[].attributes.body
This is looking great. You have a good mix of textures, shapes, and colors. You have a really good eye for composition. I hope you are taking some more art classes next year!

# data[].attributes.body
Your's is looking good, you just need more stitching. You do not have to do the french knot if you dont want to. If you would rather try a different knot I would suggest looking at the "basic embroidery stitches" video under your modules- it gives you other options!

# data[].attributes.body
I think it looks great! I really like that back round color mixed with the stitches. I think adding some more stitches would fill it up and make it more vibrant and full - Mariah Williams

# data[].attributes.body
I think all of the colors blend well really nicely! I think adding more stitches would really even it out. I think a french-knot stitch or a chain stitch somewhere on it would look really cool. - Mariah Williams

# data[].attributes.body
This is looking good. I like the x stitching in the middle, I want to see more of that (or a different type of stitching) and some more clay pieces!

# data[].attributes.body
Your stitching so far looks great but you need a lot more! I would look into the satin stitch- it's an easy one and fills up a lot of space. I dont see any clay pieces which means you have a lot of work to do before Monday!

# data[].attributes.body
Nice job so far, all of your shapes are very clean which looks great! I definitely want to see some more stitching but overall everything is very complementary.

# data[].attributes.body
You are always welcome to stop by school and grab another thing of thread. There is a little box at the front desk by the South East doors with clay and embroidery thread in it. Your shapes are interesting and looking good so far. I would just focus on unifying  the hoop as a whole by adding more thread/stitching throughout.

# data[].attributes.body
It's hard to tell in the photo but it doesn't look like there is any stitching on your embroidery hoop yet. These are due next Monday so you have a lot to do before then.

# data[].attributes.body
This is looking great so far! I love the rose knot, you did a really nice job! I'm assuming you are going to add a few more pieces of clay and stitching. Im excited to see the finished piece!

# data[].attributes.body
This is coming along, you need more stitching though. I would suggest looking up the satin stitch- it takes up more space and will make your hoop look more complete.

# data[].attributes.body
You have a lot going on with this piece! I would suggest making a few more smaller circle shapes individually and trying to balance out your composition. Right now it looks really bottom heavy because all of your clay is focused down there. I also want to see more stitching through the piece. Look up the satin stitch- it's an easy one and fills up a lot of space.

# data[].attributes.body
Your outline with stitches looks good. I want to see a lot more stitching throughout the piece along with some clay shapes!  I would look into the satin stitch- it's an easy one and fills up a lot of space.

# data[].attributes.body
Your stitching is beautiful and so clean. Im impressed. Your stitching is interesting though it is simple and I would recommend choosing shapes that are also simple. Make a few different options and set them on your embroidery hoop to see what you do and dont like.

# data[].attributes.body
Looking good so far you need to find a way to bring it all together. Right now your stitching and clay pieces look like they are each in their own little section. I want you to unify the piece as a whole. I would suggest more stitching that moves throughout the entire piece.  I would look into the satin stitch- it's an easy one and fills up a lot of space.

# data[].attributes.body
Your's is looking really good so far! You have a good balance of stitching and clay. If you are worried about stitching through the clay successfully I have a smaller needle you can use. I want to see some more stitching through the rest of the piece that's a little more broken up throughout the space.

# data[].attributes.body
The middle stitching is looking great. You just need to work on bringing it out to the rest of your piece now. It might help you to look at some of the examples on the slideshow under Modules. I think some more individualized stitching will really unify the piece.

# data[].attributes.body
There is a good balance right now between your clay pieces and your embroidery. At the same time though, I dont think it looks finished. I would suggest some more stitching.  I would look into the satin stitch- it's an easy one and fills up a some space which I think could help unify your piece as a whole.

# data[].attributes.body
This is looking really nice so far. Im excited to see where/how you place your clay pieces. Right now you could add some more embroidery but I think it all depends on your clay pieces. I would suggest figuring out where you are going to attach those before addin more embroidery.

# data[].attributes.body
You have a really nice array of different stitches so awesome job on that! You  need to find a way to bring it all together. Right now your stitching and clay pieces look like they are each in their own little section. I want you to unify the piece as a whole. I would suggest more stitching that moves throughout the entire piece.  I would look into the satin stitch- it's an easy one and fills up a lot of space.

# data[].attributes.body
I think you are at a point where you could fill up that middle space with some stitches or you could add more clay. I dont think you have to do both though. Maybe just set your clay pieces on there and arrange them without stitching them on and see what you think. If you aren't a fan look back at the "basic embroidery" video under your modules and see if there are any other stitches you want to try for that space.

# data[].attributes.body
This is looking great Tori! I agree with what Maria said- your color choices and shapes all really compliment each other. I like what you have and it seems like you have an idea of what you are going to continue to do which is good. I would suggest some more embroidery throughout the piece to tie it all together.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm sorry to hear you have been having a difficult time. Have you gone back and watched the video or looked at the step by step information under your modules? The "basic embroidery" video should be very helpful. These are due next Monday so you have a lot to do before then.

# data[].attributes.body
I found some thread at my house, its a lot thinner than the thread I got in the kit. If it doesn't work well I will come by the school.
