What else was I going to do with triangles, squares, and heptagons. This pattern was based on taking a clock-wise loop of ten heptagons (it's like a loop of six pentagons--not very circular) and unraveling it with a clock-wise loop of triangles and a clock-wise loop of squares. That is what makes the octagonal shape that surrounds the "S". So then it's just a matter of a little decoration and tiling. I'm surprised no one has really blasted me on my choice of colours. Bring the flame war on!
This blog is devoted to patterns made with polygons. I'll try to have something interesting posted regularly.
