It’s taken me a bit to get back into the swing of things for work life this fall. (That’s a long story for another time.) Now that I am here though I am totally energized by it. Aside from trunk shows and a few Zoom classes for guilds, I’ve had a chance to think about new Playdates for Quilters’ Playcation.
Up first: Improv Braid.
A Prairie Braid is an old school quilt technique, often used for borders. My version uses scrap strips as they come. It’s full improv!
A Quilters’ Playcation Playdate is a short, fun event online. I spend some time demoing the improv technique first. You can sew along with me or just watch. Then we hang out in break out rooms where you get to relax and chat with quilters from around the world. We come back together for a bit more on the technique and last words from me.
I may be making some extra long rainbow versions of this Improv Braid. Stay tuned for those!
Up next is the Scandi Village Playdate. These little houses and trees are so stinkin’ adorable! They come together quickly and can be made in any size. I’m very excited to show you how in the upcoming Playdate. Be warned though, they are very addictive once you start sewing them. This Playdate will include a discussion on piecing these together once you’ve made a few.
To register for either or both of the Playdates check out the Playcation Store
