The Cabinet of Curiosities class that Tricia Nguyen is doing fascinates me. I am not really into reproduction stitching personally, but once I realized that reproduction samplers were time machines, I started paying more attention to reproduction stitching in general. You may not see the charm yourself, but once you read these, I guarantee you will find Cabinet of Curiosities interesting, too!

Time machines. Nice metaphor. I'll be borrowing it!
Go right ahead. I think that's exactly how repo sampler stitchers use these charts. At least that explains their fascination to me. Otherwise I just don't "get" samplers!
