This workshop introduces a raw-edge patchwork technique in which participants develop their own design concept and arrange fabrics freely according to their intended composition. Moving beyond traditional block-based patchwork, JongKeong proposes a more contemporary approach that deconstructs and reconstructs the surface to create dynamic, expressive structures. Using zigzag or free-motion stitching, participants will construct both straight and curved forms with flexibility and fluidity. The class also addresses secure raw-edge stabilization techniques and explores how stitch density can influence surface texture and visual impact, allowing students to balance structural stability with artistic freedom. A key focus of this workshop is the use of mesh fabrics and intentional cutwork to create spatial depth. By incorporating transparency and negative space, participants will build layered structures that invite light and background to interact with the surface. The result is a more dimensional, contemporary quilt expression. This workshop is designed for all skill levels. Beginners will gain confidence in exploring new compositional approaches, while experienced quilters can expand and refine their personal design language. By the end of the class, participants will complete a contemporary art quilt sample with an independent and expressive composition
