Captivated by this image of a wall with a pink hole, I tried to make some kind of lath wall effect with satin stitch rows. They make an appealingly shaggy texture when cut into. I love the way the stitches sink into the velvet too. Then I was wondering what you called the circles that were cut out of the holes. Are they holes too? or just circles?

Bed now, the rest tomorrow.

The corners into holes was so cool I did a bunch of them. Next time I satin stitch all the holes before I stick them together.

I tried to describe this one on Tuesday, after banging my head with the keyboard. I bet you imagined something completely different. You should go make what you had imagined… Sometimes I think that would make a good challenge, or swap, or exhibit or something. Post a description, make what it brings to mind, and then see them all together. To a certain extent that is what illustration Friday does, but it is really big, and the prompt is pretty loose.

I am deeply relieved to get these posted. They have been waiting for you.
