At least that’s what I call it.

It was made by one of my customers who has a math degree. She made it for a nephew, who is also a mathematician. It’s his wedding present to another mathematician.  So it is perfect!

The basic quilt is an enlargement of another quilt she made.  Then she put 4 appliques on it representing 4 different mathematical proofs.

• Tennebaum’s Proof of the Irrationality of the Square Root of 2
• Pythagorean Theorem
• Nicomachus’s Theorem
• Geometric Series

My only instructions were to not disrupt the proofs with my quilting.

The background fabric is actually white with a silver thread woven through similar to a shot-cotton.  A shot-cotton is woven with 2 different color threads, with one as the weft and one the warp.  It is a very modern-looking quilt.  I love the way it came out.

My only issue is I do not have high enough ceilings to hang this quilt.  So the bottom is on the floor.

I still have not heard if the bride and groom liked it or not?

I always enjoyed math when I was in school. So would this make you like math?
