four frames from a sewing machine stitching a seam that follows your cursor under a synthetic pointer — with the ghost pointer

Brief

A small depiction of a sewing machine stitching a seam appears on the canvas. The seam is composed not of a single line, but of discrete, repeated stitches that maintain a consistent length and spacing. As the cursor moves across the canvas, the stitching mechanism draws these individual stitches along the path, continuously generating the seam in real-time. The movement of the seam is directly controlled by the movement of the cursor.

Artist's statement · qwen3-coder:30b-a3b-q4_K_M, unedited

This sketch depicts a sewing machine stitching a seam in real-time as the cursor moves across the canvas. The stitching mechanism creates individual stitches of uniform length (10 pixels) with consistent spacing (15 pixels) between them, forming a continuous seam that follows the path of the cursor. The visual representation shows discrete stitch segments rather than a continuous line, maintaining precise spacing and length throughout the process. The machine head is represented as a small tracking element that follows the cursor position, while the fabric surface features a subtle grid pattern to enhance the textile aesthetic. The implementation uses fixed-size stitch segments and maintains a bounded history of positions to ensure smooth performance within the frame budget constraints.
