Fibonacci quilt

Fibonacci Quilt: I have always been fascinated by the Fibonacci sequence. I thought it might be fun to design and build a quilt for my king size bed that incorporated the sequence. It was a painstaking process to design a repeatable pattern that could be used as a q…

Learn how to make quilt patterns using the Fibonacci sequence in this STEAM activity integrating Math and Art.

So…. Back in 2005, I made this quilt in a class at Lydia’s. It was my first experience with “improv” piecing, and we were slicing and inserting narrow strips of fabric and t…

Here's a fun tutorial to make 2 mirror image Fibonacci Square blocks! Cut 2 squares of contrasting fabric, 15” each Cut each strip into the following widths: (2) 1.5”, and one each of 2.5, 3.5, 5.5” Lay out the strips into 2 sets, alternating the colors of the strips. Sew strips together. Cross-cut the strip sets into the same widths as before. Lay out the strips into 2 sets, alternating the colors of the strips. Sew strips together. You’ll 2 blocks (with opposite colors) that will finish at…

So this one is entirely for my mother/minions - it’s just a total math thing and something I wanted to do for a while…but like usual it took me a while to execute the idea. The Fibonacci number/sequence/golden ratio/golden rectangle is a huge part of classical design, and lends itself to a nice rain

As a Science teacher I love the idea of quilts with links to Maths and Science. This Mini quilt is based on the Fibonacci sequence. This wa...

This nicely complex block is a WHOLE lot easier to make than it looks. (Edited to add: See the finished quilt here!) It's July, and I'm so excited that it's my turn to host again in the Nurture Circle of do. Good Stitches! This month we are all going to be making blocks based on the Fibonacci sequence. The Fibonacci sequence is a mathematical concept that was discovered around 200 BC. In fact, it's been around even longer than Fibonacci, who it's named after, but he introduced it to the…
