The Absence of Thread

Having a fascination with thread I decided to remove it from the stitching process as to examine the stitches on there own to see what this produces and to see wether it is the stitching that I find most interesting or if it is indeed down to the thread and its qualities.

I have done this by using the sewing machine and removing the thread, this produces a series of holes, these are best seen when using paper. I have yet to find a suitable fabric that will keep the holes.

Looking at traditional sewing patterns and stitches but by removing the thread and using white paper the images produced are a much more delicate than if I had used thread.
