LOGO-L> book on string art

[JONESV@CCSUA.CTSTATEU.EDU]

I recently purchased a book by Jon Millington called Curve Stitching 
with a subtitle The art of sewing beautiful mathematical patterns.  
The ISBN is 0-906212-65-0 and it cost $19.95.  The publisher is 
Tarquin Publications Norfolk England. The first edition was published 
in 1989, with a second edition in 1996.  It's a lovely book.  It has 
beautiful, clear, colored illustrations.  It gives directions for creating 
string art by hand, gives a mathematical description as well as a color 
illustration of designs  based on parabolas and circles to a six-cusped 
hypocycloid.  It has 35 programs in qbasic (easily converted to Logo) 
and proofs and demonstrations for why curve stitching creates these
patterns.  It even has some black & white photos of 3-D sculptures 
by Naum Gabo, Antoine Pevsner, Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth.  
I highly recommend it to anyone interested in string art.
