We are excited to welcome Emma Jean Jansen back to teach two fabulous classes at Makerie. In Sunday's class Emma will teach the lovely Daisy quilt.
This quilt combines straight-edge appliqué and curved piecing to make a delightful daisy block. This is a technique-based class, and most participants will complete one to two blocks during the day. The fabric requirements for the whole quilt are found in the class requirements list below, but if you don't plan to make the whole quilt you can bring stash fabrics for the one or two blocks.
**To make the most of your class time, it is recommended that you pre-cut one or two blocks before class. This will allow more time to focus on learning and building confidence with the techniques.
Emma Jean Jansen has been creating patchwork quilts since she was a teenager. She learnt patchwork from her mother and together they ran Ballarat Patchwork for over 10 years. Emma loves designing her own quilts and is known for her use of bright colours and re-take on traditional piecing. Emma is also a qualified Textile Designer getting her degree from RMIT and has released 7 fabrics ranges with the Australian company Ella Blue. In May 2016, Emma released her first book called By The Bundle, published by Lucky Spool Media.
