This year’s challenge is to make a wall hanging with a perimeter no larger than 100″ and at least 3 circles—any size, technique, or design. The judging will be by Viewer’s Choice at the June meeting. Have fun with this challenge!
Why circles? They are so much a part of our lives – the circle of life, the carbon cycle, the ocean, and weather cycles. They start and they end back where they began. We think in terms of circles – like the vast expanse of the universe, and how we circle around our sun. Circles give us one of the fundamental formulae of the universe – Pi.
π is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. Better yet, it is an irrational number whose decimals never end nor enter a permanently repeating pattern! We celebrate Pi on March 14. I hope this gives you some ideas for your challenge wall hanging.
