Handbook for Modern Quilters," makes quilts using
an improve "theme" or "score" not following a specific
pattern. Improv quilting doesn't use rulers or start
with a pre-planned out design – making the process
more creative and fun! In this class, we'll use fabrics
we love that are considered "wildly inappropriate" for
quilting. Gold lame? Sure! Polyester double knit? Why
not? Bring on wools, upholstery fabrics, bark cloth,
seersucker, and mix them as it makes your heart sing!
Ages 10+
