Suppose you have two silk patchwork
quilts, each made up of the same-sized squares - one 12x12 and the
other 5x5 - as is shown in the illustration. Imagine one day you
decided to join them together to make one square patchwork quilt, size
13x13.
What if we would claim that the task is quite possible and that there
is no need to cut any of the small squares - all cuts can be done
along the stitches? Moreover, it is enough to produce four pieces in
total from the two quilts in order to join up for the new one. The
question is: would you be bold enough for such a needlework? |
