Far too many hours spent on the internet, but I did find this little snippet which I thought was interesting and had to give it a quick try. It was from Linda Vincent's blog - she made randomly painted paper, using her sewing machine to "draw" simple motifs which she then tore out and collaged onto her creations.
My machine is quite basic and doesn't have a "free sewing" facility, so it was a bit fiddly to achieve the shapes, but I think the wonkiness is part of its charm. I cut round some of my shapes as it is easy to tear away the stitching if you are not careful.
