Trees for Marjorie Rice
Size: 72" by 66"
Price on request.
In the 1970's, mathematicians announced that all possible five-sided
figures (pentagons) that will tessellate had been found. A housewife with
only a high school education read this, rose to the challenge, and
discovered four more. Except for the borders, tree trunks and branches,
every piece in this quilt is the same size and shape: one of Marjorie
Rice's tessellating pentagons. There are some hand-dyed fabrics, and it is
free-motion machine quilted.
