Have you ever wanted to try making an improv quilt but didn’t know where to start? This is a fun class where you will learn a technique for working without a pattern, using simple math and combining a variety of blocks to make a 15”x18” wall quilt. We will be creating several different kinds of blocks, such as flying geese, half square triangles, log cabins and others, as well as some new ones, and working with a design wall to configure them into a pleasing little quilt.
Since Paulina won’t be doing a presentation at a guild meeting, she will be in the church lobby at the September and October meetings so you can meet her and see some of her beautiful quilts.
