I also have the quick quilt I did, to get my mojo back this week. This was inspired by a block lotto month, where the blocks were based on the "Golden Rectangle". I did some reading, because I could picture a cool disappearing quilt effect from this. While doing that I stumbled across a reference to a golden spiral - created by joining the corners of each golden rectangle. I was going to make that quilt, but the numbers are really awkward for quilting. So instead, I did a Fibonacci spiral, which is made from nice, even sized blocks.

Your blue quilt is really coming along...many new blocks since last week!
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool!
ReplyDeleteI am enjoying seeing the blue quilt progress. I really love the color flow.
ReplyDeleteI love your blue quilt!!
ReplyDeleteI was not expecting a math lesson this morning - BUT - I also have never heard of the two things you taught me either (and if I did hear about them before - I don't remember!!) So it was neat to learn about the 'golden rectangle' and the 'fionacci spiral'. Don't know if I understood it, but thanks for showing me it!!
ReplyDeleteAnd your blue blocks are beautiful!! You are doing a wounderful job on them. When it gets to be to much, make sure you take a break and don't feel pressure to work on them. It is coming along beautifully and I love how the colour flow....... Very, very nice!!!
I love the movement you are getting in your blue quilt. It looks great, keep going with it, and it will come together.
ReplyDeleteFibonacci, you mean!
ReplyDeletelooks great! I won't do a block with odd math, I can but choose not to. Love the interpretation brown block with the spiral.
ReplyDeleteGreat progress! And I think only you could do it with Fibonacci thrown in for good measure.
