Meet Jacquie Gering
Meet Jacquie Gering, co-author of “Quilting Modern: Techniques and Projects for Improvisational Quilts.”
The Stitch & Flip Technique
Stitch and flip triangles take a basic geometric design and give it motion and lots of design possibilities. Jacquie demonstrates the technique and variations.
Love Knots Quilt
The Love Knots quilt features stitch-and-flip triangles in action! Watch Jacquie create this scrappy quilt with single and double blocks.
Swirling Stars
Swirling Stars is another stitch-and-flip quilt, using rectangles to create a space-age look. Jacquie explains how value becomes important when choosing fabrics for these designs.
Slice/Insert Improvisation Technique
Slice-and-insert puts an improvisational spin on slashed blocks. You’ll be amazed at the intricate designs you can create with this method.
The Unparalleled Quilt
The Unparalleled quilt, which uses the slice-and-insert method, was inspired by a modern sculpture. It’s Jacquie’s favorite quilt and deceptively simple!
Crosscut Quilt
Crosscut is another quilt design that looks a lot harder than it is, thanks to the slice-and-insert method.
Crazy Piecing
Modern crazy piecing honors the Victorian art form but leaves you lots of room to improvise and experiment. Grab a bunch of different fabrics and start cutting!
To the Point Quilt
Turn your crazy-pieced, monochromatic fabric into a bold and beautiful design in the To The Point quilt.
