Cross-stitch sampler
Every X is two thread strokes with sheen on even-weave linen. The needle stitches each picture in; a cold blue heart is unpicked and restitched red.

Members copy the recipe and paste it to Claude, or any coding agent, and it draws this look.
Looks that sit near it
- Marker diary comicFelt-tip panels on a lined notebook page that draw themselves in. Streaky fills miss the lines; the camera drifts from panel to panel.
- Old stencil-coloured tarotBlack outlines with flat colour that slips off the lines, on aged card. The camera moves into a card and its picture comes alive in stiff steps.
- Circus chromolithographGlittery red, blue and gold ink on cream stock: big top, tightrope walker, bunting and a prize wheel, with the words strung up as banners.
- Stained glassLeaded panes with painted figures and lead-line outlines. Each window holds a scene; a watering can grows a flower in the desert pane.
