Creativity is a continuous cycle of play and editing. Experimentation is key.

This intensive quilting workshop is about having fun while finding your artistic voice and personal style. The goal is to create beautiful and powerful 2-D textile art that has complex color, composition, and concept. We'll play; we'll stitch as if drawing by overlapping layers of lines; use appliqué to make large blocks of color and shape; insert images; cut out sections & replace them; and take sewing and fabric collage to a new level that bypasses the traditional notions of precision and control.
