Crop Circles Blanket by Amanda Perkins

Crop Circles Blanket

I am fascinated by circles and the patterns they make, Crop circles are a good example of their use. Whether you believe they are man-made or made by unknown entities, they are always interesting to see
I prefer the older designs as they were simpler, a lot of the new designs are too complex, although farmers must hate the destruction of their crops the dedication of their makers has to be admired, it must be difficult constructing them and ensuring they are perfect under cover of night. The yellow/gold background represents the colour of the corn fields that the crop circles appear in.
