Landscapes as Building Blocks: Easy Improv Techniques

with Timna Tarr

$575

$10 material fee payable to Timna

About this Workshop

Use simple improvisational techniques to create small landscapes that, when put together, create a larger scene. Timna will share more than five improv techniques that can be used for landscape quilts while also providing a structure to work within so that the process is not overwhelming. Each “snapshot” becomes a small, manageable scene that’s fun to design, easy to sew, and endlessly customizable for beginner and intermediate quilters who wish to make a modern, scrap-friendly quilt. When deciding on fabrics, have a scene in mind: rolling hills, a beach, a winter prairie, summer fields, or a place from your imagination, and then choose colors that represent that idea. Bring your sense of play and a willingness to experiment.
