Review on Enhance Your Artistic Precision with CLPA 6 Inch Clear Plastic Fibonacci Golden Ratio Squares Drawing Template Set by Carol Miller

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fun Learning

I have given a more comprehensive review of the 12" Ruler and the Star and Square Templates with Ruler. This square pattern and the Fibonacci sequence are very interesting. They came with minimal instructions on how to use them. Purpose of use. Most likely because it could take a whole textbook to become familiar with all the concepts. I stuck with concepts I heard about in the same sentence as Fibonacci, and that was quilting. Although I found that Jeannie Beyer had several blog posts about using the Fibonacci sequence in quilting, she didn't specifically mention the square pattern or the star pattern, so I was alone with that. After some study to see if I had mastered the basic principles of measurement and consistency, I grabbed some paper, a pencil, and a square and star pattern ruler. The star pattern said it was based on 6 inches and the squares were based on 5 inches. 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 a rectangle, and then I was able to place stars of different sizes in the appropriate squares. It worked! I was very proud of myself to say the least. I have no idea what area of math this is taught in, but my class where it might be a part of geometry was 51 years ago! I took no math classes other than self-study to ensure I knew metric and apothecary measurements before entering nursing school. but I'll keep my eyes peeled. When quilting I mostly use squares and rectangles so I can try to use them as part of the quilt blocks. I appreciate receiving them. Many Thanks.
