Stunning Improv Sunbursts
Stunning Improv Sunbursts Working with improv can be wonderfully freeing to some, yet the outcome can seem a little overwhelming to others. You can have your cake and eat it too! Choosing constraints at the outset of an improv project can not only lower the decision-making burden that can seem overwhelming, it can also ensure your composition finishes with dramatic flair. In this class, you will experiment with several different variations of improv triangle and experiment with variables that will alter the look of each variation. You will then incorporate these blocks into a large wedge layout to make a 24" square wall hanging. NOTE: this is designed as a 2-session class, leaving 2-3 weeks in between for students to do some additional sewing)
