Today, students in Claire Krienitz’s Dye Intensive class arranged their first samples of quilt blocks and played with arrangements! Students have been sharing color swatches and swapping fabrics to develop unique color palettes.

Many of these great quilt blocks will be contributions to a collaborative group project and destined for an installation in the garden at ! Each students block contains fabric dyed by both themselves and their classmates, so this work is a collaborative effort from the start!
