Christmas Ideas

by Janice Gunner

Janice Gunner is an award-winning British quilter, stitched textile artist, teacher and author. Magie has studied with her and admired her work for many years.

Janice often uses African fabrics in her creations, especially kola nut and indigo fabrics dyed by my friend Musa Jaiteh in The Gambia. You'll see these, plus hand-dyed batiks and South African shwe shwe fabrics in her new book Liberating Log Cabin.

Janice explains step-by-step how you can take traditional log cabin piecing a step further: how to cut and piece your quilt, how to 'wobble' your blocks and how to add excitement and texture.

You'll be inspired and set free to sew.
