This workshop is a quick make and a great introduction to creating unique improvisational blocks. We will start by making traditional pinwheel blocks and quickly transform them into unique modern improv blocks. We will use background fabric and create asymmetrical layouts for the pieced blocks. You can use a variety of modern prints including African prints to make this fun quilt.
Schedule & Prework: Students will view a prerecorded tutorial on fabric selection and making pinwheel blocks. Live session will focus on improvisational fracturing and creating the final layout.
