Tuesday night is sketch club night. I have only been twice this year and, as I only draw that night, I am right out of practice. I was happy with one quick sketch and am wondering how I can employ stitches to render a version of it.
I have been reading a couple of interesting books which have got me thinking - one on the history of crewel work and another called Embroidery Studio (Embroiderers Guild). Embroidery Studio features a number of textile artists who consider an old embroideries or textile and the pattern, stitch , composition etc and interpret and creation of new works inspired by those textiles.
