I liked it, mostly, because it was a design technique that I can use beyond the class. It is a technique that could be similar to using Electric Quilt, but sometimes I need to sit down with graph paper and scribble.<\/p>\n<p>I went to class thinking that I would expand the technique and use it for one of the Niece-phews quilts, if it worked out. I had one nephew in mind, so I brought reds for the foreground and dark grey for the background. I thought I could make a pillow cover for a gift if i was not willing to commit to making a quilt using the technique.<\/p>\n<p>The technique is great. Mary C asked me where this technique had been all her life and I wondered the same thing. Another thing I liked about this technique is that it isn&#8217;t quite improv, but it is not a buttoned up pattern either.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38774\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38774\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/20171111_154956_wm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-38774\" src=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/20171111_154956_wm-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Planned Improv Class Block\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/20171111_154956_wm-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/20171111_154956_wm-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/20171111_154956_wm-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/20171111_154956_wm-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/20171111_154956_wm-1200x1200.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38774\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Planned Improv Class Block<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I am pleased with the way the block came out.
