I love math and am pretty good at it. I think I like it because it is logical and that makes sense to me.

That's how I get my DH involved in my quilting! I never even took geometry! :)

No do math poorly. Do you think that might be a problem when it comes to quilting?

Sorry, I have a master in math and love to quilt and be artistic. There's a lot of math with quilting and have had students design a 12" block for math class.

If I have any math questions my daughter is studying to get her Master's in math. I'll just ask her.

I LOVE math! I loved it in high school and I loved it in college. I was always very good at math. It is like a game or a puzzle and it it always logical!

Doing the math portion of making and designing my quilts is one of the most fun parts!

Love, love, love math!

I learned about a month ago, some people have a right brain - leaft brain connection. I have that. It explains why I could never decide if I was right or left - I'm both. I think that's why I enjoy quilting so much, it involves quite a bit of math, but also my creative tendencies
