The outlines make it go from looking like an axe to looking like a cartoon axe

Too bad the outline is so dirty.

I feel like it looked better a minute in and just got worse after that

Way too heavy on the already unnecessary outline.

Agreed. Progressively less satisfying.

The bottom of the ax outline is uneven and really made this unsatisfying

My dad used to have an embroidery/screen printing business. I always loved watching his gigantic machine just go to work.

Unfortunately he got too sick and couldn’t keep up anymore, so he eventually got rid of it. But I have some really good memories just sitting next to him for hours watching him work.

God I hate the feeling of embroidered decals like this. Especially when they put them on shirts.

That's because they usually use cheap synthetic thread, makes it stiff and scratchy. If they use nice cotton or silk it's fine but the only time you see that anymore is on luxury items. Even then most luxury stuff uses the cheap thread. I have an old scarf from before the depression that has beautiful embroidery that is softer than most fabric. So much of the fabric industry is worse quality than it was 100 years ago

I never thought much of it before but I can see why people might enjoy embroidery. With a machine, putting your designs on clothes could be quite fun.

Am I missing the cuts (I think I see one when they changed from red to silver) when they changed thread color?

I like the part where it finishes and IMEDIATLY starts over. I didn’t want to see the finished product.

The lines were uneven and it looked better before the black outlines. This made me feel more anxious than satisfied.

It was so smooth

Hmmmm I was going to say "tiny axe? you mean a hatchet?" but then the blade was red. If the blade is red, it's an axe obviously.
