I wouldn't say I do a pattern but I was recently thinking about how before I SI I always plan put EXACTLY what I'm going to do,where I'm going to cut,how much etc. I don't know why though. I could never SI without thinking what it's going to look like. Sometimes I have dreams about things like that and I end up carrying it out, so I kinda know where you're coming from

I've written things once or twice, but mostly I just cut lines and stripes.

In a way its good to have a finishing point, at least for me writing words, once they are done, its over for a time

I don't do it in a pattern, it more often cut lines up and down my arm.

I do not use a pattern but I have a certain number. That is the OCD part of me
