Michelle Trimble is a quilter, pattern designer, and educator based in San Francisco with 20 years of teaching experience, including teaching at regional and national conventions. She enjoys experimenting with new techniques, dramatic layouts with bold saturated colors, and adding texture to her quilts with free motion quilting. Her work has been featured in magazines and hung at local and international quilt shows including Houston International Quilt Festival and QuiltCon. You can find out more about her on her website: quiltingchemistry.com. In Adventures in Improv, Michelle shares her personal journey of discovering the joy and freedom of piecing without a pattern. She’ll walk you through her creative process, from the first hesitant stitches to the bold quilts incorporating swaths of negative space that followed. This lecture is all about exploration, choosing which rules to embrace, and finding fun in the unexpected twists of improv quilting.
