From my sewing room to yours…
My goal as an improviser and teacher is to hand to you a range of pattern possibilities, so that you can discover YOUR way of making patterns. The beauty of improv is you can’t do it wrong!
Whether you are new to quilting, to improv quilting, or improv quilting we all have the freedom to begin where we are and continue to grow. Building on content from The Improv Handbook For Modern Quilters, my workshops encourage ALL participants to tap into their beginner’s mind.
Sewing machine, ironing station, rotary cutter/mat, scissors required + fabric stash, scraps or upcycled materials.
You’ll have guaranteed access to participate in all 7 workshops, for 14 days of improv with 6 guest speakers. Plus, a live BONUS CONVO on Sustainable Materials available first to Season Pass members. If you are new to improv or need a refresher you will also have access to a replay of Improvise! Creating, Quilting & Living Courageously, my mindset lecture on improvisational process and patchwork quilting.
Each livestream workshop comes with video replay available through August 31, 2024, AND you’ll be able to connect with others in BravePatch, a mentoring community for makers and improvisers, where we celebrate differences and craft connections. Season Pass holders will have a FREE two-month trial to BravePatch membership in January, new members only on an annual plan.
