A South Korean kid at school saw me using a compass to lay out the overlapping circles for this drawing/patterning, and asked what I was doing. When I showed him, he said, "Oh, tessalations!"
I said, "I bet you that most Americans don't even know the word tessalations much less what it means." He came back to me 20 minutes later to say I'd won the bet. He'd asked 20 kids at lunch if they knew what tessalations were, and they didn't.

Shopping with daughter for glass paint at the craft store. Realized I didn't have a pic for today. You would think there would be all these wonderful abstract possibilities - but guess not after the holiday season and getting ready for inventory and transition. Most of the displays did not provide a good eye shot. These are science fair boards that were stacked.

Before I use a pattern, I trace it onto interfacing and iron that onto cotton fabric. Then I cut out the pattern and use that as my guide, it's sturdy and you don't have to worry about little hands ripping all that tissue paper while you stand there in tears. (Not that I know anything about that!)

Pattern is one of my favorites but now out of print. fabric is a nice, soft shirting from the 2.95 pile at G Street Fabrics.
Walking back from the Acropolis area in Athens, Greece, I spotted this pattern from the fence on a random building. I couldn't help but capture it, as I'm rather attracted to patterns.
After scratching my head about smooth continuous bezier curves, I remember to an old blog post from Marius (thanks delicious.com/eskimoblood/bezier)
