I have some exciting teaching events happening this fall!
First up is my popular Artful Improv class at Artistic Artifacts in Alexandria, VA on Saturday, September 29 from 10 AM – 4 PM. Join me to learn how to create original quilts without a pattern using easy improvisational techniques.

2 – 5PM Workshop – Improv Color Blocks
This will be a fun day of learning to create improv log cabin style blocks–in the Sampler, we’ll talk about piecing the blocks using a sewing machine, and in the class I’ll show you how to create them using fusible techniques.
Improv Color Blocks – Cindy Grisdela
Saturday, November 10
8 – 11 AM Workshop – Take the Fear Out of Curved Piecing
Learn to piece curves with no pins and no templates–it’s easy with improv curves because there are no seams to match.
Raspberry Lemonade – Cindy Grisdela
3 – 4 PM Lecture – Combining Stitch Patterns in Your Quilts
It’s fun to combine different stitching motifs with free motion–more fun to quilt and more fun to look at when it’s finished. I show you how I do it in this fast paced lecture.
And in late October, I’ll be traveling to Minnesota for a wonderful week of teaching with Minnesota Contemporary Quilters and Minnesota Quilters! See the details
here.I hope you’ll be able to join me at one of these events!
I’ve bought your book and would love to take a class. Unfortunately I can’t make it this fall. Do you have any venues scheduled for 2019 yet? I will make a plan around it! I am always inspired by your new work. I am also a big Cherrywood fan as well as one of yours.
