Workshop Details

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.


THANK YOU TO ALL PARTICIPANTS, REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED.
