On Sunday I am leading a workshop on doing Art Quilts.
Art quilts start with an empty space.
You arrive without a pattern.
And, you let your imagination tell you what kind of fabric would be so perfect.
You begin on a journey where the ending is a surprise.
It is like present moment quilting.
In life we believe we have planned enough, so we know the ending. There appears to be comfort in knowing, or even believing you know that which you can't know.
Creating Art quilts is the opposite of planning to know.
Your imagination feeds the next step and the next fabric selection. It is to be open and present and listening for ideas that will seemingly appear.
