The connection between textiles and mathematics is intimate but not often explored, possibly because textiles and fibre arts have traditionally been the domain of women while mathematics was viewed as a male endeavour. How times have changed! Today, textiles and mathematics, like art and science, are recognized for their interwoven, complementary attributes. In this presentation, Gerda will examine the connection between quilts and mathematics. Come to be inspired, enlightened, and delighted by the mathematical stories behind a wide variety of traditional and contemporary quilts.
