Paradox in Thread

Betty B emailed us:
I took your class at the International Calligraphy Conference in Boston (Odyssey). I had to work on Rick's paradox tangle because I just knew it would make a great pattern for my embroidery on paper - and it did! Thanks for putting all of your work out there to be used and enjoyed by the masses. It's a special gift. Betty


Thank you for sending that, Betty. It's a great way to show that the lines in Rick's paradox really are all straight!

    Beautiful work. I'd like to know what sort of paper she used.

    I used either Canson black or Strathmore Cover Weight (I can't remember their name for it, but not too many papers come in black). Betty
