Creativity & Complex Curves

SESSION 3: Learning to add complex curves to your quilt designs is like being given the keys to the universe. In this workshop with Patricia Belyea, you make a curvy-pieced quadrant quilt of your own design. And, another composition with straights and curves.

creativity & inserted curves

In this online workshop, you start by making a simple set of inserted curves. You move to a composition that includes 3 to 4 interwoven lines inserted into a central 9-patch background. Then you add a clever inner border and an extension to the background.

Five 5-hour sessions include lessons and demos, and sewing in your home.
