While improv quilting involves starting a quilt without a pattern, it is a skill and a technique. In modern quilting, every quilter approaches improv with their own style and method, keeping the foundations of traditional quilting in mind. In 'Imperfect: Embracing Improv Quilting', Julie Burton, breaks the seams between traditional and improv in the quilting world. She takes the reader on her journey in a quilting education, showing classic quilt patterns with a modern twist and introducing improv to traditional quilters.
Julie Burton is the founder of Running Stitch Quilts. As the mother of two and an army wife, she has traveled around the country through her husband's various postings. She is a personal trainer and a marathon runner, as well as an accomplished photographer.
