Someone should make a quilt with those seven beautiful images in the article.

Hidden Figures (the book) by Margot Shetterly. I loved The Glass Universe by Dava Sobel, but perhaps astronomy is a bit of a stretch.

I’m curating an exhibition of Mathematical Art at the Australian Mathematical Society meeting in December. If you’re coming to the meeting and you create art with mathematics, please think about being involved. More information to appear at the conference website.

I heard him interviewed on the radio, when he said these words, on the way to my 87 year old father's house, and I could clearly imagine the disruption. My father's concern for him was the travel to receive the prize!

Congratulations @mathgrrl.com It must be said that getting a piece of crochet to Paris by way of the USA from Australia is perhaps inefficient, but I do love a good collaborative project.

15 colorful granny squares with matching mathematical patterns, connected together as part of a community artwork

🎉🧶🇫🇷

The community project "Granny Life" is going to Paris!! The artwork was accepted for the exhibit "Création, entre arts et mathématiques" at Maison Poincaré in Paris. Woooo!!!

Join the project and your crochet can go to Paris too! www.grannylifecrochet.com

Oooh, I do love a good example of cyclic symmetry without reflection.

I thought I could see my square...and I could!! And are those customised blocking tools?

We’ve called her Pallema Allen, ever since Ms 21 first started asking for the books, before she turned 2.

Oh, so sorry to hear this.

Trees covered in white blossom.

Cool today, but unmistakably Spring. Lunch with Ms 18 in Carlton. When I was a student at Melbourne University, I would sometimes meet my mum for lunch.

Blue and white flag against leafy wall.

In Geelong with Dad today! Go Cats.

Ooh, nice non-uniform distribution dice. I could have had fun with those when I taught probability models.

As I recall, your hair is straighter.

Drove past the house I first bought back in 1993, and which was, when we sold it 11 years ago, almost 100 years old. It is no more: garden, Edwardian weatherboard house, tiled fireplaces, new roof ..., all flattened. Sure it needed more done to it than we had done, but I am a bit sad today.

Actually, maybe just check the work of Shiying Dong, which she terms topological crochet.

I would check the Bridges archive and the website of Sarah-Marie belcastro.

Hence matrix: giving birth to determinants.

I am learning to use a sewing machine. Better late than never.

Create crochet granny squares for a community math/art project! Our Granny Life motif-generating app can now export printable pattern pages ❤️

Painting showing celestial objects and the equations for celestial motion.

Yesterday I did a walkthrough of the rooms for the AustMS conference and chose the space for the inaugural art exhibition. (This isn’t it; this is the tearoom, where we enjoy this work from the university’s art collection.)

The materials we use are all off-cuts and dead stock. Apparently, I excel at tidying up at the end. 2/2

I thought that it was high time I learnt to use one of the 2 sewing machines I have inherited. Didn't ever learn to use one at school, or from my mum. I am going to classes, which are "after school" for the other members. So far, I have made a wonky trivet and an excellent wheat bag. 1/2

So interesting. This is the period when foreigners were excluded from Japan, apart from the Dutch (to a limited extent). Fascinating to see this image. Love the cutlery in particular.

Yes, I loved the graphic.

Can I ask who the presenter was?

Explained positive and negative skew of data to Ms 18, who is accustomed to my style of maths explanations, which often uses everyday language and examples. Her final question was “But what are the tails really called?”

According to a statement from my publisher, there’s another 52 copies of A Stitch in Line out in the world. Thank you 🙏 so much for buying and reading it. Please tag me if you make something in hitomezashi 🪡 using ideas from the book 📖. I would love to see it.

This was my younger child! Admittedly I didn’t take the older one, so I don’t actually know what happened that day.

One of my kids didn’t want them off because she was scared that it would hurt, since they were stuck on so firmly….there were anticipatory tears!
