Our own SCVQA member Sarah Goer will lead this 4-hour workshop on Zoom. We will not take an official lunch break, but you may take your own break at any time after 10:30am.

This 4-hour workshop is your opportunity to try a new spin on the traditional log cabin block. You choose small or large scale. Then play with size of strips, background placement, symmetry and other elements to create your own unique improv log cabin(s). Students can expect to construct one or more improv log cabins in class, depending on the scale they choose.

About Sarah:

I’m Sarah Goer, artist and educator.

I help quilters build their improv piecing skills in a fun and playful way, so they are inspired to create their own unique designs.

My classes are a bit of a choose your own adventure, packed with tips and tricks as well as permission to play. Part of my joy in teaching is to see the many unique perspectives that develop from the same prompt.

Based in San Jose, California, I learned to sew as a child and was drawn to the color and geometry of quilting after college. As a former middle school math teacher, I combine my eleven years of classroom experience with my nearly two decades of quilting experience to bring clear instruction to my quilt students.

Students appreciate my easy going, nurturing style.

“You have inspired me to think outside my box!  I love the improv idea and have done it only once! Thank you so much!" --Sandra
