"A simple doodle is the perfect way to start our crewel embroidery journey. If you relax and take your pencil for a walk, you can draw interesting patterns full of intersecting curves that give three- dimensional effects. Filling these different shapes with our basic stitches creates fabulous texture. I've used all my favorite filling stitches plus this project's bonus stitch: closed herringbone. Feel free to create your own doodle or use mine, but fill it with your chosen stitches and colors." - Jo Avery from Modern Crewel Embroidery
