Improv Sampler Quilt
Share
At the beginning of August, there's another Camp Stitchalot coming at you! I get to teach (yay!) But even better, I get to teach alongside Dan Rouse, Amanda Jean Nyberg, and Jacquie Gering! Four quilters that love improvisational piecing. Last week I got to play with the sample blocks from each teacher and make them into a little quilt top!
Blocks are by (starting in the upper left and continuing clockwise) Dan, Jacquie, Amanda Jean, and yours truly!
Campers will get a chance to learn each technique and they can either make a block of each and put it together into a baby quilt like this or they can make it much bigger, combine the techniques, and go their own way.
I had fun with the blocks a bit as they were coming in and even toyed with a layout like the one below...
Ultimately I decided it would be clearer to lay them out in a standard block arrangement, but I can't wait to make my own quilt in August and play with different layouts and combinations!
Oh, and one last look at the backside of that improv sampler quilt:
