Stitched Illustrations by Peter Crawley

We simply love these - beautiful, minimalist, geometric and architectural.
We look forward to seeing much more of his work. All Peter Crawley's
stitched illustrations, are created by piercing 420gsm watercolour paper
with a pin and then stitching the paper with cotton thread.

"The vector lines are printed and placed over the watercolour paper. I then
have to decide how the piece will be stitched and meticulously pierce every
hole with a pin ready for the stitching, sometimes over a thousand holes.
Finally using a needle and thread, stitch the illustration."
