Sewing Typography

As an experiment I had a go at making a physical typography using sewing. To do this I drew a circle and sewed around it so see what it would create. I didn’t specifically choose any directions or ways to create this because I wanted to see what would happen if I went with the flow in a natural direction.

I liked the way that the A turned out because you can’t specifically tell that it had been drawn within a circle, but I think that this has helped with the geometric style because it follows a pattern and looks interesting. The O, however, didn’t turn out as well. I don’t like the overall appearance because it looks boring and doesn’t flow as well at the other letter. When looking back at this, I think that I could have added more directions maybe at the edge and subtly going through the middle so that it looks visually interesting and not like a generic O.
