LA CONNER WA What was I thinking when I scheduled two back-to-back, weeklong Curves Workshops? Happily, the experience was a wonderful marathon—with incredible women, non-stop creativity, and lots of shared meals.
inserted curves workshop
Here are pics of the first project of the workshop. Note how the center of each composition includes nine blocks intersected with curved piecing. And the nine-patch does not jog when the curved pieces are inserted. Also check out the micro inner borders—and one improv project!
creativity, curves & compositions workshop
The first project of the week was the Quadrant Quilt created with four 18" blocks of curved piecing. The second project was a much bigger composition—one big idea made with curved piecing. Here are pics of participants with their projects!
and again?
It’s the folks who’ve attended Okan Arts workshops who’ve made each event first-rate. There’s been true questing for new directions in quilt making. And a generosity of spirit that’s engendered welcoming and supportive groups.
I'll be back to La Conner to teach two workshops in 2024:
CREATIVITY & COMPLEX CURVES
Sun, June 2 to Fri, June 7, 2024
CREATIVITY & INSERTED CURVES
Sun, June 9 to Fri, June 14, 2024
