I’ve blogged about math-based needlework before. Now I came across Nimble Needle’s needlepoint that she designed based on a Hilbert Curve. Wow, simply elegant. Her use of color in this design is absolutely critical; a mono-color version couldn’t have captured it nearly as well.

Brilliant and true…math based Needlework.
This the reason why I teach so many children how to Needlepoint and incorporate the basics of math.
They learn how to stitch by counting. Period.
Then they create landscapes with lines and designs, depth and dimensions. Children can begin to be as creative as they like. No rules.
Just a canvas, threaded needle…, and a colorful imagination!

Wonderful to find your site.
Please look at my web site and share your reaction.
I think it’s time for original needlepoint works
to be seen in contemporary art galleries and art museums.
Is that too much to ask?
