Materials: Square of Fabric (I used an 8" square of satin- you should use fabric more substantial that a chiffon/organza), strong thread + needle (I used a quilting thread, if you're using something weaker, you should double the thread), and optional pins.
For most blocks, we'll either have to skip a row or a column, (or both!) so I shaded out those rows/columns. Just remember to overlap the blue points with another repeat, so there's no discontinuity in the pattern.
Thanks to Anda for teaching me how to fuse plastic bags and Federico for coming up with an awesome design.

Lissajous figures are interesting curves that occur in systems where oscillation happens in more than one direction, for example when a pendulum hanging from a string moves in the plane.
These pictures are from an easy persistence of vision approach to playing with Lissajous figures. Read more about this project here.

B.B.C. estimates that each set was being watched by four people. As there are only three people seated one can only conclude that the forth person just whipped this sketch up of the modern home whilst waiting for the kettle to boil. Tea and slippers all round. Oh, we *do* love a man with a pipe....

Materials: Squares of Fabric (I used 6x 3.5" squares of satin), Scissors, Needle, Thread, Pencil, and a Ruler. You might also want an embellishment for the center of the flower (I use some gold seed beads).
America Online has been sending out a new mailer. It's constructed of fairly sturdy cardboard, and has a magnet to snap the case shut.
I have to give my sister credit. When I was at her apartment a few weeks ago, she showed me a tiny but surprisingly powerful magnet on her fridge; it was the magnet from one of these mailers!
This flickr photo set shows how to get the magnet out (it's easy) and has a few demonstrations of how powerful the magnet is. Click "next" (it's up and to the right) to continue.
You might just want to see how strong this tiny magnet is. Skip ahead to here and here.
Hack on!
