Hullo everyone
Some of you will have noticed references, over the past couple of
years!, to a set of mathematical quilts I have been making. I have had
some great encouragement from here and I now want to share with you my
delight that it is all done. I delivered the quilts to the organisers
of the exhibition last Monday. DH and I photographed them the day
before, and he has now put them onto their own page in our website. I
understand that colours vary from computer to computer, so they may not
be exact to the fabric, but they are near enough for you to get the
effect, I hope. Also, the one representing the Fibonacci series has a
slightly wavy edge! That is because I quickly pinned back the binding
and took the photograph on the morning of my departure! I sewed down
the binding and the hanging sleeve in the hotel that evening g. I
have had the 'Snowflake' quilt - the centrepiece of this collection on
the site for six months, so you may have seen that one. The other
twelve are all just under 24" square (though they are not all square!).
I used a lot of variegated thread (and self colour thread) for quilting,
so most of it is invisible!) That's funny really, because, although
usually I shy away from the quilting, I actually enjoyed this 'lot' and
some of it looks quite pleasing g.
The place to get to the 'mathematicals' on their own is:
www.quik.clara.co.uk/quilts4
Our website as a whole is:
www.quik.clara.co.uk,
and there is a highlighted bit on the home page to get to them.
Whatever you prefer.
If anyone has any question on their construction, or anything, do feel
free to e-mail me. My address is OK at the top here.

All I can say is WOW. Congratulations on every aspect of this exhibit--from
conception to color to design to execution. It's seldom to see something 'new'
in quilting, but by jove, I think you've done it!

Congratulations on finishing Patti, they look almost as good on the website as
in real life. So which is the first quilt show where they will be exhibited?
You must be so proud of such a fantastic achievment.
Any news on the book ?

Pat, these are brilliant in every sense of the word. Will they have a
permanent home somewhere?
