In high school I was very good at geometry. I remember that I even proved a theorem that my teacher didn't expect anyone to prove.
Nearly fifty years later I use geometry all the time as a quilter. I couldn't prove a theorem if I had to.
There is geometry all around us. I love the lines and angles and circles and arcs I see in nature, architecture, agriculture, industry, and of course, quilting. That's what I plan to post on Mondays for the foreseeable future. If you would like to join me with Geometry Mondays, make a mention in a comment. If you post your geometry on another day, then that's fine, too. We'll be in a mood to look for it.

Interesting theme! And a great shot to illustrate some of the shapes. My Odd Shot is circular.
Wired for sound.
This reminds me of my life in the Owens Valley with the power lines marching its length. It reminds me, too, of my father's grand-aunt who wrote geometry texts in the early 20th century.
I giess there is some geometry in the odd shot I prepared for today since I didn't know I wasn't supposed to ....
I have often thought "angles" would be a good theme -- geometry is a much cooler name, though. I plan to join you, though beware, I have been having short term memory issues!
Argh! I forgot my link and your comment box is discriminatory against non-Google based blog hosts.
You know what. Never mind. Too much work. I don't have time to leave a link. They find it or they don't.
Sorry Quilly. After rejecting 27 anonymous spam comments in the last 24 hours, I went back to no anon comments. That may be the issue, but Open ID should work. Oh, well,.
To see Quilly's geometry, visit Quentessentially Quilly .
Nice shot with that blue sky! I posted a blog over a year ago with Geometric skies and phone wires.
Hi! Wonderful
Katney - wonderful. There is geometry in almost everything we see, if we care to look. Our Creator is very mathematical don't you think?
Thank you Katney -- my comment sounded so bad! I really meant I was out of time. I wasn't angry at you!
Open ID doesn't work for me because they refuse to let me update there and it takes you to my old blog -- as does the blogger link. Alas. If I wasn't already late and had more sense, I just would have written:
