. . . pin{k}s and needles . . .

. . . i know i should have paid better attention

in mr. steiner's geometry class

my sophomore year . . .

. . . because it was hard to picture

those little wedges of fabric

actually fitting together

to form a teensy dresden plate . . .

. . . and i love polka dots to death . . .

. . . but circles are hard! . . .

{this photo is upside down :( please "read" it japanese style}

. . . and they don't turn out exactly round . . .

{better keep practicing}

. . . and trying to cover it up

doesn't necessarily make it better . . .

. . . but, let's focus on the

cute ric rac instead . . .

. . . or even better . . .

. . . take a look at

these pointy sharp little works of art . . .

. . . which i first saw here and here . . .

. . . and i knew i needed some

for a couple of quilty friends . . .
