Contemporary Patchwork

Design, Play, and Quilt Without Limits!

Do you love a contemporary twist and a little quilting mischief? Join Melody David-Baker for a day of fearless fun where color breaks the rules and patchwork plays by its own game! In this class, you won’t just follow a pattern—you’ll design your own modern quilt magic.

We’ll dive into the secrets of balance, texture, contrast, value, and color—but don’t worry, it’s all served with a side of improvisation and Melody’s signature tips, tricks, and laughter. Whether you’re craving bold shapes, unexpected combos, or just want to shake up your quilting style, this class is your creative playground.

So grab your favorite fabrics (the ones calling out for adventure) and get ready to stitch outside the lines. You’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind patchwork that’s fresh, fun, and totally you.

Why follow the pattern when you can make your own?
