Architectural Slice and Insert Quilting Workshop with Kim Eichler-Messmer

We will look to our favorite architectural forms as starting points to create unusual and dynamic quilt compositions using a planned (not improvised) slice and insert technique. Elements of perspective, shadow, and pattern will all be explored in compositions that are built from the ground up.

Supplies: You will receive a supply list upon registration.
