December 2003--new works in Martine's Gallery!
Also, new calendar of Martine's lectures, workshops and teaching events on the Workshop page!
"Have you ever felt isolated in what you do with your quilting/ fiber art? I
have! That is why I thought it would be interesting to share with you some information I am
collecting from other people. You can see some of my work in Martine's Gallery . If you are interested, I also teach workshops in various quilting techniques. You can see pictures of the projects I teach. You will also find an order form for my patterns and designs at the end of the workshop page.
Although I use very traditional techniques and mostly do handwork, my pieces are very
different in their format and also in what I use with them. I am sure there are lots of
other quilters/fiber artists like me, who enjoy using different fabrics, techniques
and who are always on the look out for new ideas.
In this magazine venture, I would like to include articles by other fiber artists, professionals about different types of fabrics (batiks, hand dyed, African fabrics...), embellishments and different ideas of things that can be done with quilting. I am also including articles with general information about quilts, their use and care for those of you who love quilts and want to enjoy them, but do not necessarily want to make them. E-mail me with your ideas for topics you would like to read about! You may wish to visit other pages of interest to quilters and craftspeople alike. Please bookmark "Quilting Magazine Online" and check back often.
Sincerely,
Martine"
Martine House is a fiber artist, lecturer and teacher who currently lives in Western North Carolina. Born and educated in France, she moved to the United States in 1983 and immediately started quilting.
After learning and mastering traditional quilt-making, she became involved with designing her own pieces and teaching her favorite techniques. She teaches for quilt guilds and quilt related groups in her region, teaches at the J.C. Campbell Folk Art School in Brasstown, North Carolina and periodically teaches workshops in France.
In the Spring of 1999, her book about her embellished trapunto technique will be published in France. Martine is also going to be teaching in several locations in France following the publication of her book.
