Create an illustration of two burlap dolls with button eyes and stitched smiles, inspired by Edward Gorey's distinctive style. Use intricate cross-hatching to bring out the texture of the burlap material, adding depth and a sense of tactile realism to the scene. The dolls should have simple, stylized forms with exaggerated, slightly distorted proportions, evoking a sense of eerie innocence. Keep the background minimal, emphasizing empty space to create a sense of tension and isolation, while incorporating a symbolic motif like a needle or thread to subtly suggest a deeper, mysterious narrative involving manipulation or entanglement.
