Just a few more

Of course I neglected some of my favorite stitchers when I posted about mark makers on Wednesday. So, here are just a few additions - and I’m probably still forgetting somebody. If so, please forgive me! It’s not intentional.

I love the Mark Makers ...

A line is a dot that went for a walk. -Paul Klee

 

I love the mark makers ... their obsessive-compulsive scratchings, their lines, their dots, their diagonals and cross-hatches. Their marks make little pathways for me to wander. Their colors take my breath away ... each time, I think: this is my favorite one.

I love to make marks, too. Once I start, it’s so impossible to know when to stop. So ... I won’t stop. I’ll just keep marking, cloth after cloth after cloth. 

 

Do not fail, as you go on, to draw something every day, for no matter how little it is, it will be well worth while, and it will do you a world of good.     -Cennino Cennini
