Students will create a true “broken grid” quilt. We will discuss the use of precision piecing versus improvisation and how the two techniques can be successfully combined in one quilt. It is very well suited to working with scrap and upcycled fabrics.

Students will explore creating Broken Grids using a “fence” or “plus” block. We will play with color, value, and scale, to begin building a one of a kind piece. The building blocks can be incorporated into a wall hanging that can be finished in class, or students may choose to continue building into a fuller scale project.
