Look closely to see the squares, circles, triangle, lines and other shapes that make up the things around us. Architecture and buildings are a great place to start, but why stop there? The next projects require a lot of measuring and building to make the lines and shapes that form designs. Your building blocks are wood, paint, thread and fabric.
