Blog Tour Create Your Own Improv Quilts
Rayna Gillman has been an inspiration and friend for several years. In fact, it was in one of her books I was first published. She found me online, and we were drawn to
each other's free form work, back in my early days of quilting! This past Quilt market, we were in the same C&T publishing School House presentation of our NEW books!
Rayna's newest book encourages you even further to cut and play with abandon!
She says:
- YOU can make a totally original modern quilt without a pattern.
- Start with a simple shape (square or rectangle) and discover infinite variations by asking yourself “what if?” and experimenting.
- If your “what if?” doesn’t work out, it will give you an idea for something else.
- You can’t make a mistake – follow your instincts and interpret the modern aesthetic your own way.
I asked Rayna what her favorite part of the Quilting journey she loved best: We are kind of the same this way! She says:
I'm a "process" person, so the best part of creating is playing, experimenting, and finally -- seeing how the colors, values, and shapes come together into a unified whole.
Ha - I do this because I can't NOT do it. You might as well ask me to stop breathing!
How many of you relate to that? ;-) I sure do.
So, be sure to follow along with the Blog tour, I will be giving away an EBOOK, contest ending Dec 8th.
