February 13, 2026 Workshop

Strip piecing is a wonderful technique for producing perfect checkerboard patterns, zigzags and diamonds, but it can also be used when creating exciting improv designs. In this workshop, we will examine strip pieced designs developed by the Seminole Indians in the early twentieth century, and other traditional patterns that utilize strip piecing, and then we will shift focus to experiment with the improv potential of the technique. Participants will create a range of unique pieced designs samples that they can choose to incorporate into larger quilt projects or keep as standalone works of art.
