TASTER: The Makers Studio with Lucy Engels, Artist and Quilter
FREE Tasters (Quilting) • Educational, G, 01-Aug-2023
In this episode of The Makers Studio, we meet quilter and artist - - Lucy Engels - - who inspires us with a colourful modern quilt design using a foundation paper piecing technique that she calls, “controlled improv.”
You’ll learn how to map out your own template on freezer paper. Press fabric into place with an iron and then sew the pieces together.
You’ll also see how Lucy quilts with different colour and weight of threads to accentuate the pattern.
Lucy encourages us to experiment with colour to create more movement in our quilt.
We’ll also join industry experts: Jayne Brogan (Janome technical expert and Regional Manager) and Linda Seward (quilting expert and author) for a round table chat about the finished project.
