Tessellation Method

(Note: Step 3. should be labeled "Tiles". And "Tessellations" has two Ls.)

:)

 

I've always been fascinated by M.C.Escher and tessellations. Here's a simple way to make your own.

 

Any grid will work: triangles, squares, diamonds, rectangles, hexagons, etc. To really mix it up, do a different squiggle on each side of the tile. The key is to be sure the lines meet at the corners of each tile.

 

Since I'm not so good with a pen, I'm looking forward to seeing what someone with skill can do with this!
