“Black, white and one colour” embroidery course. First part of first exercise: make patterns, black on white, using a variety of pens.

I found this very relaxing and enjoyable. Just… make marks. Of whatever kind. Then make different kinds of marks. No expectations, no rules. Like stepping back into being a child and just doodling.

I made a bunch of patterns, and could have made more, if someone hadn’t occupied my stash of paper. I took that as a sign to call it a night.
