I’m a prairie kid who loves research. I have a Master’s in economics with a focus on public programs, labour and education. Long before that, I did my undergrad in physics & English with a math minor.

Besides my resume, you’ll find this page full of sewing projects, the odd published poem, and stories about Canadian science.

A note about the blog title: in math and physics, the prefix eigen means one's own. It comes from the german, but mostly I always liked thinking about a particle's eigenvalues, and thought I might apply the same thought to my excursions.

Here was a big ol project that turned out cute and was more or less unproblematic!

The only real note I have is that I didn’t expect it to be so big. Anyway, this was a make with the kids project, and it started with both kids wanting a snake stuffie, but only one of them followed through. He selected the fabrics from my “not special” stuff and blessed me with easy to use cottons/mystery composition but still handles cotton-ish in “shark colours”.

He will also note that this is NOT a snake stuffie it is a COBRA, thank you.

1/4’ seam allowances, clear instructions even for a non stuffie maker like me AND even with several different head options available. Really pleased!

Oooh before I got photos of it, my guy gave it neck tattoos. Very tough cobra.
