Dear Jamie,
Thirty years ago as a draftsman it was commented.. How wonderful ! Your geometry will be so easy as you learn to quilt.
Never have I used my geometry.. I do the fly by the seat of my pants. Log cabin, thangles, squares, never - I mean never too - curves.
It is just not what I can do. These women that plan, create and use the geometry, God Bless them.. I can create, be pleased.. but as a crafter, a true quilter.. Nope.. Just a dabbler that always walks away felling ok..
Sample quilt no pattern style: Log Cabin, Nine Patch. Thangles. Use a square template so if nine patch is just a little off. it can be trimmed to perfection.. Good luck !
