Machine Embroidered Doodle Art

Ive always been a doodler of epic proportions, im not very good at keeping still and doodling lets me fidget without loosing my focus for some reason! So i knew a doodle had to be included on the picture wall :)

Originally it was just a black and white doodle as thats whats my doodles normally look like but it stood out for the wrong reasons - being too plain. So i knew it needed an injection of colour

So, inspired by the woodland for my origami foxes, i decided to do some free hand machine embroidery on the paper. The embroidery is very rustic and irregular as i wanted to keep the doodle theme going but i do love how its turned out, the colour has really elevated it to another level :)

Pebble drawing

Finally got round to making a bit of pebble art and i love it! As a bit of a compulsive doodler of very similar patterns i found it quite blissful drawing on the cool hard stone with a white marker. This large grey stone has travelled with me to four different homes now and ive never really known why i love it (it has no use, not even as a door stop, it just rolls away!) but i always have and now i think i love the decorated version even more. Just wish i lived by the sea so i could find more stones and pebbles to try this out on!

FYI this is the pen i used, a Posca Round Tip Ultra Fine in White, which i bought from hobbycraft, although im sure any finetip white pen would work fine.
