What inspired you to make this project?
The connection between data and stitching has a funny corporate backstory. I was asked to create a report using pivot tables for my day job, and decided to take information that was meaningful to me, and started stitching the pattern. This helped me create the data sets and create those views in Sheets. By creating a physical connection to what I was tracking, it was much easier for me to learn. As our world becomes more data driven, data literacy is so important – not only in business, but as critical thinkers.
