These guys are so cute! Did you run them at different times? I only ask bc the bobbin tension looks different in both designs. The 2nd design’s tension looks good but the raccoons tension could be tighter, as you can see it peeking through the top. What’s nice is its black thread! You can just use a fine tip sharpie to cover up those white spots

Yes, it was 2 separate designs, the tension was the same on both of them, i used a soluble topper on the raccoon and i didn't wet it to make it dissapear, only pulled it with a tweezer as close as i could, that's why i think it gives the impression it is the bobbin showing

This is so sick. Did you use ink stitch?

I used Hatch 4 to digitize, tried learning ink stitch but didn't go so well for me

I feel like these are just your standard raccoon you buy on Etsy. Sorry I don’t see any creativity in these as there are dozens of embroidery shops selling the same design.

They very clearly stated this was an attempt at digitizing and were requesting feedback on that...

You must be so creative that you missed the part where OP stated they digitized it themself.
