Express Your True Self: One Piece at a Time
Enrollment will be limited.
Explore the mystery and excitement of creating a pieced abstract quilt with little or no plan.
"Come with an open mind and an open heart and we’ll journey into the vast space of creative bliss." -sheila
I teach this class in-person over 5 days, but now you have the opportunity to slowly create your piece and allow it to unfold...
In this workshop you will be given several options in which to compose your design, and choose whatever feels right for you. We will discuss basic design and composition, color and value, quilting, and most importantly - trusting your instincts.
After you register, you will have immediate access to a tutorial where I share my construction techniques for sewing curved seams. Throughout this course, I will discuss some of the challenges you may run into with spontaneous design and piecing and so much more.
This is a great workshop for advanced quilters as well as beginners.
Wherever you are is where we will start from.

What my students are saying...

"Since I’m primarily an art quilter these days, I look for classes that will help me grow. There are many classes around that are based on short-cut techniques or patterns, but I screen for those that will give me insight into makers I admire and that have the potential to teach me more about color, line, and more sophisticated construction techniques. I hit the jackpot when I signed up for a two-day course offered by Sheila Frampton-Cooper. Her style of teaching is affirming, professional, warm, inclusive, and shows a strong intuitive grasp of where the student is. Her discussion of her work was process oriented and a great spring-board into our own immediate construction of individual motifs and color schemes. The environment in the class was collegial and we all got a substantial amount of work done. In her class, you learn to work in her manner without leaving as a clone—just as it should be. I went home inspired to keep going on my project and see it to completion."

“I have wanted to take a class from Sheila for a long time but none have been close so I was delighted to find an on-line class. I wondered if it would be possible to get the same amount of help as an in person class. It proved to be no problem. Sheila is very organized and had worked out how to use zoom as an interactive tool. She had a white board for demonstrations and she used procreate to show us ideas for our individual work. I was able to hear and see all she was doing with each student. One of the best things about taking a class is learning from the people around you. The Zoom format capitalizes on that.
I had hoped by taking a class from Shelia to gain new ways of thinking about my own work. I felt fairly confident working intuitively, but wanted to get another point of view. I came away with many new ideas bubbling away!
I truly appreciated Sheila’s personality and teaching style. I watched as she gently lead each of us in to new ways of thinking. I am far more blunt, not always the best because it can stop the “flow”. But Sheila guided us each to a broader perspective. We were a diverse class. Some had a fair amount of intuitive background, while others were new to the practice. Sheila met us each where we were and I believe everyone made strides in the class. I watched and admired her teaching talent as well as her artistic talent. She is so very willing to share her gifts.
If you get an opportunity to take a class from Sheila, grab it! Any worries about an online class need not be. I believe you will find new ideas and thoughts as a result of a class from her.”
