Refresh your wardrobe with personalized creativity! In this workshop, you will design and sew your own quilt blocks and attach them to a pre-loved item of your choosing (we recommend you bring a tote bag or jacket*). You’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind item you’ll be proud to use or wear. Intuitive quilting is the process of creating a quilt (or quilt block) using your intuition and sense of creativity. You’ll select fabric scraps in shapes and colors that you’re drawn to without too much planning. We’ll move through the process without limits, allowing for creativity to flow freely. This course is for beginners and seasoned quilters alike. If you’ve never used a sewing machine before, you’ll be guided on how to sew simple straight lines, gentle curves and how to appliqué. If you’ve sewn apparel or quilts using patterns before, you’ll be encouraged to put away the “rules” and sometimes rigid guidelines of traditional quilting to tap into a more freeform and intuitive way of quilting. No experience necessary. Ages 16+ welcome! *Please bring items made from woven material only (non-stretch). Sweatshirts and anything made from knit fabric are not suitable for use in this class. Tote bags are also available for purchase from San Diego Craft Collective.* For more information visit: sandiegocraft.org Stay Connected on Facebook and Instagram

In this two-day workshop we’ll explore the potential of the Prose Poem form as a meaningful addition to the writer’s toolbox. Our first session will serve as introduction: we’ll discuss examples of the prose poem—some poems will be finished pieces & other will show how some poets switched from lined verse to the prose poems format & possibly why. Participants will have an opportunity to create some prose poems of their own. The following week at our second session, you’ll be asked to bring copies of prose poems you have written. Please be prepared for a read and critique segment wherein you’ll be asked to read your work, discuss how you chose the form & why. This two-part workshop is an excellent opportunity for writers of prose to discover how their work can be transformed into a poetic form. San Diego Writers, Ink on Facebook / Instagram
