Improv For Planners was designed specifically for quilters who prefer a structured approach but
are curious about the spontaneity of improv quilting. This class offers a unique blend of planning
and creative freedom, to keep the overwhelm at bay that can come with too many choices.
In this workshop, we'll explore the art of improv quilting without what can feel like the “chaos” of completely unplanned designs. We’ll start with a predetermined layout and use a set of traditional
quilt blocks to guide our creative process. You’ll select a limited colour palette and create blocks
without deciding on the final quilt arrangement or colour placement ahead of time. Once all the blocks are made, the real adventure begins as we assemble the quilt. With each piece
coming together, you’ll discover how your choices create a quilt that’s as unique as your
imagination.
By the end of the workshop, you will feel more confident in choosing colours and colour values in your designs, and letting go of pre-planning everything. And you will have a portion of a very unique, very YOU quilt.
