Some VOS (Very Old Stitching)

I came upon these photos of some shorts I embroidered back in 1975, right after I learned how to embroider. Amazing that I still have these shorts, isn't it? I sure can't fit in them anymore. I remember how hard it was to stitch through the thick denim, especially with the french knots and satin stitches! Did you ever embroider on denim jeans, shorts, or perhaps on that old chambray shirt? Ahhh, the 70s. Was it really 30 years ago?
