Pure relaxation and loaded with surprises. These quilts were made using my unusual, easy improv technique, piecing log-cabin style on unmarked paper triangles. My book (right) includes instructions for small pieces, and patterns for two of the large quilts below.
The book is sold in my Etsy shop. If you learn better from videos or classes, I offer this as an on-demand class, here. It’s the equivalent of a full day class, and the book is included in the class fee. ADD LINK TO CLASSES PAGE
