Steph Skardal Lecture - Apr 9 “On Creativity: Pushing Your Creative Boundaries”

4/9/2025

0 Comments

 

Steph's lecture was amazing!                check out her 2024 gallery here

 She explored the definition and value of creativity and creativity blockers. She shared a framework for building a creative practice in quilting so that you walk away with confidence to apply this framework to your growing creative practice.
What is your exploration? How will you be disciplined? How will you be supported?

​Bio:
Steph Skardal is a quilt designer, educator, and maker who loves finding the balance between order and chaos in her quilts, mixing hard geometric lines and structure with an element of randomness in texture, color, or layout. With a background in software engineering, she is motivated to experiment with different techniques and technology to create original quilt designs.
