Sunday, August 2nd
9:00am to 3:00pm
Level 1: You can thread and operate a sewing machine.
Curious about improv quilting? Learn using any fabrics you bring, with no rulers, templates, kits, or measuring. You will go home with blocks that you can use to make a larger quilt, wall hanging, or whatever you choose!
From the instructor: This is a day of freedom and fun with improv quilting! We will ignore traditional sewing rules and experiment with color, size, and proportion. Learn tons of skills and techniques with no worries, just fun!
