Dodecahedron Heaven & A Giveaway ...

 TA DA!


Sewing it together wasn't that tricky after all - a bit of finger pressing and it was pretty much there (that's what you get for using a mathematically designed template!)

I had intended to leave the cardboard templates in and complete it as a hollow, sharp edged solid ...




But  once it came to popping it right side out, I had to remove the stiff card as the stitching was so delicate (by my standards!) I didn't want to risk ripping the fabric  ... so I was left with a deflated little ball ...



... Then came the stuffing ...


And here it is, in all its congruent, geometric perfection  ... (well, actually, it's a bit soft and curvy!)








Next up is the icosahedron and then all the others (especially now I've discovered Archimedean solids  ... oh yes, this one's going to run and run ... especially if I win this lovely giveaway over at It's All About The Fabric ... (runs until Monday 20th Sept) GIVEAWAY NOW CLOSED (I didn't win boo hoo)
