Who is Jacquie Gering?

I am drawn to modern art, mid century design, most things vintage and fabric. My goal is to rethink quilting by finding and articulating my own voice. Ultimately it is about me, alone in my studio, creating my own process and expressing my preferences in my work. Simple is my preference, but i tend to overcomplicate. Quilts are life represented. Quilts are personal.

Prep Work

• Prepare four 15" x 15" quilt sandwiches for practice (top, batting and backing)
• Please make your sandwiches so that the backing and batting extend at least 1" on each side around the sample beyond the equitable area.
• Your practice quilt sandwiches should be whole cloth and solid fabrics
• I recommend low loft batting.
• You can pin base or spray baste your prepared quilt sandwiches but they need to be basted and ready to quilt.
• Spray basted quilt sandwiches will be easier to mark and are recommended

Sewing machine with walking foot or dual feed. Please have your guide bar or seam guide that works with your walking foot. Make sure your machine is clean, oiled and in good working order with a fresh needle installed. If you have any questions about preparation, materials or equipment for the class, don't hesitate to contact me at jacquietps@gmail.com
