New Embroiderers Welcome!

Embroidery doodles are an opportunity to try out different stitches. They can be free-form and geometric, or of an actual drawing or picture. They can be one color or many colors. Think of this as the Zentangle of embroidery (Examples of Zentangles).

  • Be creative and have fun.
  • Just to keep the playing field level, please embroider on a 6" x 6" (15.25 x 15.25 cm), 100% cotton piece of fabric, leaving at least a 1/4" seam allowance (unstitched border around the edges).
  • Embroider your name or Swap-Bot name and date somewhere on the square
  • For some embroidery tips, please see the links on the latest Embroidery Lesson Swap here: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/145588.

Example photo source is one of my own embroidery doodles... look forward to having yours featured in a future embroidery doodle swap!

I like this. Watching for now but reminds me of a college experience of "free stitchery".

I'll have to pass this round. I already have a few needlework swaps I'm working on. Don't want to get too overloaded. Would love to do it in the future though.
