Improv Technique 6
Freehand Curved Piecing
I had to dig deep to find this one...
I haven't seen this for 5 years......eeek!
What got me started was this 2015 issue:
I took it camping with us that summer...
Great directions...
I stitched in the camp trailer every evening.
Here it is almost 5 years later...
I unearthed some of the strips and scraps...
Here goes....Freehand cutting and piecing:
Just like riding a bike.....it comes right back
Before Pressing: the sewn strip is wonky...
After Pressing: lays perfectly flat
Every now and then....throw in a pieced strip
This is yummy FUN!

I used something like this some years back. I went and watched the video link and the sequel to that video. Jean Wells demonstrated how she did the tiny thin inserts........oh yes! I love that and think I could have lots of fun playing with that technique. I really am enjoying your improv series the past week, so fun!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are getting a bit of inspiration from the Improv Series.......so am I!
