You have the skills. You have the materials. You have the machine. Now if you could just figure out where to start with this improv thing. What if you could sew what you see in your mind? Or what you see in the world? This class gives you ways of working and ways of thinking that help you create freely, that help you bypass that inner critic and get you sewing abstract images or abstracted images from reality almost immediately. Simple exercises will lead you to make quilts completely your own. Each of your quilts in the class will be unique. Along with my easy directions I will have lessons on composition, making images freehand, the role of quilting and more.
