A recent black and white doodle

This was a recent doodle for the sake of doodling. I had fun getting lost in the creation of this ... who knows where I might end up using it? It was very relaxing to unwind this spiral for no particular reason and I find the resulting rhythm of it rather pleasing.

Kathrin, if this is a doodle, what are your real pieces going to be? And in your beautiful doodle I see spiral use (Module 3 - YEEESSS I do see spirals everywhere) and calligraphic use (Module 4).

What a wonderful doodle! How big is it? It has a feel of Aboriginal art about it. I have posted a picture of the apron as requested!!! Will post some more once I have finished sewing fabric samples to the back of the panels to hide all the messy stuff!

Well, the doodle is 30cm by 30 cm and was the culmination of a series of other similar-ish but more random aboriginal looking creations. I thought that giving those earlier ones a structure would help - and it did. It was very stream-of-consciousness (which is why I think of it as a doodle although of course it is a bit neat and tidy for a proper doodle) as each shape was unplanned overall but they each responded to the next and surrounding shapes. I was clearly mentally limbering up for the black and white module!
