Module 4 Chapter 6 - Hand and Machine stitching



In the first sample, bundles of withdrawn threads are loosely interwoven. I wanted to take this sample a step further, and looked for 'letters' within twisted threads. I stitched over some of the letter shapes, with hand and machine stitching. The parts not stitched looked odd, so I continued stitching even if it was not a letter shape. This piece did not turn out as well as I hoped, but I will still include it.

i like your idea of pulling out the letters you see. i have a thing for seeing letters or faces in everything.
