GENERAL MEETING: "One Thing Leads to Another" with Fern Royce (IN-PERSON)

Fern Royce

Improvisational quilting is an intuitive way of creating quilts. Fern often starts her quilts by playing with scraps or an idea, drawing a rough sketch or wondering: What if? In this lecture Fern describes her quilting process and how each decision informs the next, keeping her engaged, focused and often unsure of what happens next.

More About Fern

Fern was born and raised in Northern California, surrounded by sewing, textiles and quilts.  She took her first quilt class in 1995 and learned the basics, but never followed patterns. She studied old quilts and quilt books – focusing especially on antique, Amish, and African American quilts. She was also greatly influenced by the books and work of Gwen Marston. and quickly followed her sharp left turn onto the Liberated Quilting path.  In 2012, with Gwen’s blessing and encouragement, she started teaching.
