Detail from the west side of Giotto's tower.
The hexagonal panels on the lower level of the tower depict the history of mankind, inspired by Genesis. Those on the west side show the creation of man and woman; the beginnings of “mechanical arts” and “creative arts”.
The lozenges on the next level show a different style: the marble figures stand out on a background of blue majolica. These allegorical representations are almost all attributed to Andrea Pisano or his school. Those on the west side represent the planets.

Stitch through all layers of fabric that are on the back. Do not go through the paper, nor the layer of fabric on the other side of the paper. Before pulling all the way through, slip your needle through the loop at the end of the thread and then pull tight. This replaces the need for a knot.
I crocheted these hexagon washcloths a couple weeks ago. They were super easy, fast, and fun! This organic cotton is sooo soft and fluffy...like a cloud.
Pattern: Motif #30 from Beyond the Square Crochet Motifs
Yarn: Lion Brand Nature's Choice Organic Cotton in Almond, 1 ball
Hook: US J 10 / 6.00mm
Mods: I crocheted one extra round of Round 4 to make each larger.
My long term project. I like to play with them and rearrange them every now and then...
Was only going to be a small lap quilt, by cutting enough hexagons for three flowers from each of my 30's fabrics, but then I went on a fabric buying frenzy and it could end up king size.. None of these hexagons have actually been cut from the stash, these are just from scraps and a couple of charm squares.
