Putting my Pi in the oven

 Since moving, I've done very little craft, mainly because most of my craft stuff is in my friend's garage back in our old town and secondly,because the rest is in a box somewhere.

However, I wanted to make something for Pi day which is the 16th March.

***EDIT: IDIOT! It was Monday, the 14th!!!!! Not Tuesday 16th- which isn't even the 16th, it's the 15th!!!****


I decided to draw myself a simple cartoon of a feminine-looking Pi. This is not an original idea, loads of people have done this over the internet, including Kate Gabrielle who has a whole host of adorable Pi paraphernalia.  I wanted to order her Pi-day pins but I left it too late and I also got stung by Customs last time I ordered some of her stuff.

So I drew myself a cute polka dot Pi and got ready to put it in the oven.

 Stupid, stupid baking sheet, the foil flew off into the fan at the back of the oven and the Pi was wrecked!!!

So I had to make another one the next day. This time I put it in a deep loaf tin.

 And this time, it worked out!

I thought I'd show you the comparison between the original picture (I traced it) and the shrunk version.

Happy Pi day!

Sadly, I suddenly realised I am at the Royal Albert Hall all day (as you read this, I will be hoping that my 26 children are behaving, safe and singing well!), so I will not wearing it as planned as I will be wearing my Royal Albert Hall and Music School pins from the previous visits but maybe CBC might sport my Pi pin instead.
