Signature Technique
Unique methods of twiddling and fiddling, manipulating fabric to create tantalising textures – engineering in material!
Jennie’s Top Tips
- Use of a firmly woven crisp fabric will create the best textural effects, stiffer materials maintain the folds.
- Pressing seams open and flat reduces bulk and makes the finished piece have a more even appearance.
- When free motion quilting, use a plastic horseshoe shaped hoop or embroidery hoop as a ‘steering wheel’ to give you something to grasp
