    Great job. I saw that design on the Sewcalgal blog. I always draw a motif several times to get the motion locked in my brain. No matter how hard i tried I just couldn't develop a rhythm with the jester hat motif. I kept messing up the direction. You did a great job with yours.

    I had trouble at first also. So I got into a rhythm of 2 bounces left, then 2 bounces right, then 2 bounces up and 2 bounces down, always changing direction from the previous. Another gal in our group thought of the design as the number 3, do a regular three, then a backwards three. With time, it got easier, but it was a challenge!!
