Today I was in a quilting class taught by Alison Schwabe. The first of a two-day class. Alison is from Australia, and our guild was lucky enough to get her to teach for us (and lecture at the meeting on Friday) while she is in the US visiting family.
What a fun class--and great teacher! This class is totally improvisational.
Quarter-inch seams? Don't matter.
Straight-line cutting? Don't do it.
Measuring? Don't worry about that.
Below are some of Alison's quilts, and close-ups of them, too. To see more of her work, visit her website here.

Silly me, I forgot to take photos of my experiments and play-time today. Hopefully, after tomorrow's class I'll have those, plus some actual finished work to show you. Stay tuned!
