Intro to Improv Quilting



What if? Intro to Improv

You know the rules- cut straight, match your points, etc... But, what if someone gave you permission to break the rules and create something that is uniquely you?
Explore Beginning Improv Quilting with Ellyn. Step away from the traditional quilting rules for a day and learn improv techniques that can be used in your next quilt top.

You will leave class with a stack of blocks, a toolbox full of tricks and a head full of new ideas!

*Each quilt will be different and of your own design. Quilt shown is just a sample of what Improv Quilts can look like.  You will not be making the same quilt as pictured.

After taking this class use your Improv Block to make a Japanese Rice Bag with Ellyn on the following Saturday.


Supplies:

5-6 Fat quarters of coordinating fabrics. Solids, read solids or small modern prints work best

Quilting ruler. 5” x 12” works best

Basic Sewing Supplies, see list here

Note pad & pen for jotting notes

Individual iron and ironing mat
