I very much enjoyed the short article from Needlepoint of View (Pepita Needlepoint's blog) about engineers and needlepoint. It got me thinking.
http://needlepointofview.com/2011/07/15/attention-engineers-try-needlepoint/
Janet Perry's found an iPhone stitch it yourself kit. Would an engineer with a smart phone be tempted to try by this?

Or would an engineer be tempted by classic trompe l'oeil as stitched in Ruth Schmuff's class?

Whichever route you take, go tempt an engineer with needlepoint, will you?
