I have to comment again. Jen's work, her patterns and her teaching is amazing. And she say's it easy. Great attitude. She makes all her student's believers because look at what they made! WOW!
she is a very fun instructor and I could listen all day to her pronunciations. I hope the opportunity arrises...I know she is coming back in 2018 to Sisters and I have already signed up!!!
What a great video Anna! How I wish I could have been there and what a special shop you have near you! Many, many thanks for taking the time to record this lovely class.
it is true what they say...there is no place like home but we are already planning and itching to hit the road, LOL...a couple of wandering souls...+ dog
Jen is all about the riot of color. The workshops offered at the Stitchin' Post are amazing. Jean and Val have done a fantastic job of bringing bucket list instructors to our area.
I know!!! I love her use of the English language and pronunciations, in this case she literally meant a cup of tea and actually took a piece to the back kitchen and dunked it in a cup of tea to show how to change the tone of a fabric you might love.
OMG! I believe I just found a new designer to follow. Thank you so much for filming and posting this video. Up in Canada, Ottawa, we have a few good LQS, but rarely have classes with such designers and authors...as the cost is just too high. I always thought Puducha was the place to visit but now I'm thinking Sisters! The Stitching Post is unbelievably stunning. Thanks again.
Quilt Roadies your shop is awesome too! We don’t have a large quilt community in NY so for the most part, I have been working in isolation and through RU-vid and Instagram- after seeing this I think I will take the Small World Quilt Class that is being offered at my nearest quilt shop. Thanks again! And please keep sharing.
Thank you Anna for this video. I enjoyed the close up of Jen`s quilts. The Stitchin Post seems to be a very inspiring store. I wonder who makes all the sample quilts?
The samples are made by several of the employees including Annette who was rearranging the bolts! They have a couple of designated long arm quilters who finish it up....Jen is a gem!
What beautiful beautiful quilts,they made my heart sing ❤️👍....Anna did you have your pen through a button drawing around the template?. Thank you for introducing Jen..her explanation on how she chooses fabric was very interesting.
I know...I loved hearing how she puts fabrics together...that is the part of making a Jen Kingwell quilt that scares me...how do you put together all those different fabrics. I explained it to Cakers yesterday and it made even more sense. It is a little brace drafting button which measures a perfect quarter inch when run around a template. The Stitchin post sells them and OMG are they ever a handy little tool for easily adding the quarter inch!
Hi, I love the quilt Jen held when she said, "This is the one Sue liked, this is the one that started it all." Would you happen to know that quilt pattern name?
I loved your class! You are lucky. I have a question what were you using with your marking pencil to trace around the template? Thanks for your videos Cecelia
you know it is a little round brass drafting tool...pencil guide...you put your pencil or pen in the center of the circle and run it along your ruler and it lines a perfect quarter inch seam around your template!!! Fantastic...they sell them at the Sitchin Post so you can order one :)
Did Jen talked about the acrylic templates for EPP?? It’s a problem to try to find them. When a store has some, it’s not written wath size goes with what!
Estoy bendecido por seguro! Es un círculo de latón hecho para la redacción. Usted inserta una pluma o lápiz en el centro y luego rodar alrededor de su plantilla para crear una línea de costura de pulgada de cuarto perfecto. Usted puede ordenarlos desde el Stitchin 'Post en Hermanas Oregon :) hace que la creación de la cuarta pulgada tan fácil!
Oh, Anna, I was so sad to hear your comments about Batiks. I love them and if you don't, that is fine, but you were so adamant about it, I found it distressing---
oh I hate to cause you distress...I am really allergic to them. What ever chemical is used to create the beautiful fabrics activated my asthma and caused my hands to dry out and peel when I was ironing a kit I made. The quilt came out beautiful...I did not. So I have steered clear ever since...although my Fabric Stalker group are all batik lovers.
