Fat Curves & Skinny Lines
3-Hour Workshop
12 pm - 3 pm EDT, Friday, June 26
In this freewheeling improv piecing workshop, we will explore the territory of BIG improvisationally pieced curves while also adding SKINNY pieced lines to and around the curves. Students can go deep and get busy with lots of piecing or go wide and create a robust and dynamic quilt with just a few dramatic shapes and lines. It all starts with a sketch that we use as the leaping off point into improv design and piecing. Satisfaction guaranteed.
All Levels
Students to Provide
Sewing machine with a straight stitch and a quarter-inch foot and/or the ability to create a quarter-inch seam. (A quarter-inch foot with a flange will NOT work for sewing curves.)
Olfa 60MM Straight Handle Rotary Cutter (Click Here) Is HIGHLY recommended for cutting without a ruler.
Straight Rectangular Ruler (please bring one basic longer ruler, my favorite is the Omnigid 4’’ x 14’’) (Click Here)
Rotary Mat
Basic quilting supplies including straight pins, seam ripper, neutral thread, scissors, and snips
Measuring tape
Small sticky note pad
Paper and/or notebook and/or draft paper for making notes, sketches, and drawings about your quilt
Calculator or smartphone with a calculator
Design wall (a large piece of flannel or batting works fine)
Digital camera or cell phone with the ability to take pictures
Stiletto or Awl
Small bag for trash/fabric scraps
Painters tape both 1’’ and 1/4’’ sizes (optional)
FABRIC—PLEASE WASH ALL FABRIC BEFORE COMING TO CLASS
Please bring approximately 4 yards of fabric in an assortment of colors—solids, prints, and tonals will all work. Fat Quarters, scraps, up-cycled fabrics, and yardage are all welcome. If you bring smaller pieces of fabric, their sizes may determine the sizes of your curves and lines.
While not all of you will sew, it is good to have access to your sewing machine!
