Becoming Creative: How I Designed a Quilt with R
summary
Project uses R to generate a quilt design, producing a 2D projection of a 3D landscape with generative art with geom_polygon(), then translates that design into fabric using foundation paper piecing. A published Stanford paper’s method maps pieces to a hypergraph pieceability check to compute a valid sewing order. Execution includes iterative improvisation, Reddit feedback, visible physical mistakes, and a finished quilt (a ggplot rendered in fabric); work-in-progress automates pattern and fabric-choice generation.
