DESCRIPTION
Explore quilting intuitively without using rulers, templates, pins or a plan! This is an improvisational quilting class, a collage with fabric experience. We will be making one to two large squares with “bird” ideas: NOT representational, just the spirit of birds. No experience is needed. We will applique our designs either by hand or machine, no raw edge fusing, just playing with color, pattern, and composition.
