At 1450 Ocean: The Role of Color in Quilts with Modern Quilt Studio

Cost: $50, Register Online at https://recenroll.smgov.net/adet.sdi?activity_id=34072, or call 310-458-2239 or email communityclasses@smgov.net.

We will look at a variety of quilts as well as analyze art, sculpture, architecture, gardens, and images of daily life for inspiration to better understand the role of color in design. Using individual and group color explorations you will learn analytical tools needed to use color with confidence. Leave with a deeper understanding of the role of color in your projects.
Please bring sewing machine, rotary cutting equipment, fabrics you love to work with as well as others that have proved challenging to work with, extension cord, thread, seam ripper, notebook or journal, and any supplies you like to have handy when quilting. A few machines are available at the Center, call to inquire. For beginners through advanced. -
