Carolina will show you 4 different improvisational techniques, such as cutting without rulers, building blocks, and composing.
You will learn what it is to improvise.
You will create 4 sections with these techniques: strip improvisation, improv triangles, soft curves, and random pairs. With these, you will create your own quilt.
