    Man!!! I bookmarked both links so I could more leisurely view them. The beauty of the universe leaves me speechless. My belief in an almighty Creator is further deepened by seeing evidence of his creative works.

    Thanks for the links!

    Quilt University offers a class on the fractal quilts also. I've never taken the class but it has always intrigued me.

    The design is printed onto the fabric, for these (embroidery and quilting added by hand later). Must be a REALLY BIG printer! I don't even want to think about the cost of the ink cartridges...

    These designs are fascinating.

    MATH IS GREAT!!

    Another NOVA fan here -
    Back around 1991, I had a screen saver that would generate fractals. Sometimes I would come back from lunch and find someone sitting at my desk, completely mesmerized.
