GWEN MARSTON QUILTS & KIDS GO TO CAMP
Camp Earth Connection....Gwen has donated a quilt to raise funds for the Village Camp Scholarship Fund. As reported from their site, Camp Earth is "a place of acceptance, diversity and community where respect for each other and nature is taught." I think we could use a little of that about now, and I'll bet they all have a great time too!

STUDYING IMPROVISATION
Excitement builds. The sewing room hums with improvisation while I play with strips, slivers, squares and points. I'm busy making more class samples for the Small Strip Study class offered at AQS QuiltWeek Grand Rapids August 13, 2015 www.quiltweek.com
A small study quilt is a useful way to explore design and try something new. Small strips create texture in the quilt surface and interesting lines in the design. Calling adventurous students of any level. Explore original design, free cutting, and experiment with accidental happy surprises. I will use a brief trunk show of small strip studies to outline the process and spark your imagination, demo a step or two, then we'll get sewing!
P. S. Thanks to 37 SKETCHES by Gwen Marston for first introducing the process of small studies. If you want homework, I highly recommend this book! pjb
