Review on 📏 CLPA 12 Inch Clear Plastic Fibonacci Golden Ruler: Achieve Perfect Proportions and Artistic Designs with Math-Free Application by Shantel Griffin

I've been hearing about Fibonacci and the Golden Sequence for the last few years. I had no idea how it worked so I was happy to get this ruler and the star and square templates. They came with minimal instructions so I hit the internet to learn more about Fibonacci and its relationship to quilting. Of course, this can apply to many things, including nature and plants, shapes and sizes of animals, etc. I wanted to find out how this relates to my craft. I've only heard of this in relation to quilt borders so you have the right width for each quilt border. One of the quilts I found on her blog with lots of information was Jeannie Beyer. if you wonder how she uses the golden ratio, go there. She gives many examples and shows how a quilt block made the same way but with different sizes can look so different and just "right" compared to another. Also if you are not a quilter but want to see some examples I think your blog would be helpful. Square and star pattern. The star template said it was based on 6 inches and the squares were based on 5 inches. So, using the 12 inch ruler and the rectangular design shown in the templates, I enlarged the rectangle for the squares to one based on 6 inches. Then, using both sides of the ruler, I fitted each square into the rectangles, and then I could fit the different sized stars into the appropriate squares. It worked! I was very proud of myself to say the least. I have no idea what area of math this would be taught in, but in my class 51 years ago it could have been geometry! I didn't take any additional math classes other than self-study to ensure I knew metric and pharmaceutical units before going to nursing school. I'm really excited about this set of rulers and templates and already have a few ideas in mind for how to use them in sewing and crafting. I like to learn something new and for us older people it supposedly helps protect against old age and it was interesting to learn. I would also recommend this device for homeschooling parents. It may or may not be taught in public schools, but why not. It's not like it should take a month or more to learn. Once you open yourself up to it, it's interesting to see how many locations you see in this golden sequence. I appreciate receiving them. Many Thanks.
