A few weeks ago I began experimenting with a new technique called freehand machine embroidery. You can put a special bouncing foot on a regular sewing machine and you have the ability to move material around in any direction while sewing. It is used often in quilting.
I wanted to use it to draw images on fabric and use them as patches and pockets. Unfortunately, I quickly realized that I have almost no ability or desire to draw my own images. That's where Nick came in! I went to high school with Nick Schloessin many years ago and have been enjoying his drawings on instagram.
I hope you enjoy his drawings as much as I do and check out more of his work.
