More #hitomezashi explorations: if you use sine curves as segments you'll obtain a chiral #aperiodic curve.. I guess I might call it a 'shuriken' hitomezashi?

I find it immensely satisfying that these alternating dash patterns intersect this way.

I want to see what it would look like if the dash alternation was determined randomly! Next one's going to use a coin flip.

I had a devil of a time adding a fill function to my #Hitomezashi pattern #tweetcart from the other day, but I finally got it down to less than 280 characters!

Plotter Postcards: Layered Hitomezashi Patterns

Continuing to play with Hitomezashi patterns. This time layering and offsetting two versions. It's such a compelling algorithm!
