note
I would have loved to have the time
to quilt. At one time, there was a trend
for the straight line quilting and classes
but was unable to take them and then
time moved on. I am amazed at the leaps
and bounds the straight line quilting has taken.
.
As a child, my paternal Grandmother Gerstner
would put her quilts together on my bed when
she stayed with us… I was the only grand-child
with a double bed. I’d see patches of material
from clothes I recognized and presume the other
relatives would also.

Euclid’s “breadthless length”
greek to me
straight line segments
dysfunction junction math

Note:
the love of math gene missed me,
but thanks to genetics, my children and
grand-children love math and understand
what is truly a foreign language to me.
