Patternless Power Class: The Unplanned Patchwork

Ready to break the rules, ditch the instructions, and discover what happens when you just play? Patternless Power is an exploratory, low-stress workshop designed to boost your creative confidence using the simple magic of symmetry.
Spend the day sewing with Jen and let your creativity loose. In this class, you'll take a standard 10-inch fabric stack, embrace the thrill of cutting without a plan, and watch stunning balanced designs emerge entirely on their own. By tapping into repeat cuts and symmertical layouts, you'll turn raw intuition into a striking, one-of-a-kind quilt top. No complex math, no strict guidelines--just pure fabric freedom.
You should be an advanced beginner who is already comfortable making basic blocks such as half-square triangles and 4-patch. This is an all day workshop x 2.
Session 1: We will start the morning sorting our stack and talking about color, contrast, and scale. Then we'll get to work sewing our blocks. Pause when the mood strikes you to eat or socialize. We won't finish this project in one day. You will take blocks home to finish. Please bring your own lunch. We have a limited number of machines available. Please call the shop if you need a machine provided.
PLEASE NOTE: Session One is Saturday, November 7th, 10am - 4pm. Session Two is Saturday, December 5th, 10am - 4pm.
Session 2: Another full day of sewing as we start to organize our blocks into a layout with balance and movement. The goal is to finish day 2 with a finalized layout. Again you will sew at your own pace and take breaks as needed. Bring your own lunch.
