Paper patchwork


I've been playing with paper triangles, discovering patterns and shapes. Yes I could just look at a patchwork book. But I thought I'd explore things for myself first. Makes what you find personal and exciting. Treasure hunting. I'll look at books later.
I'll always remember my school physics teacher who made us feel we'd discovered the laws of physics for ourselves. We'd leave the class like seafaring adventurers.

Coccoina is my favourite glue. I only discovered it recently but it's an Italian classic. Smells like marzipan, totally child friendly. The little brush makes sticking very satisfying.
