Jenny Raymond -

Jenny is a very enthusiastic person whose strong points in quilting include color, piecing, design and a desire to be genuinely involved with those who take a workshop or attend a trunk show/lecture . Photos that are used for a students personal use are always welcome in my workshops.

Sunset over Keukenhof Garden Full Day This quilt was designed as a tribute to Jenny’s trip to the 2004 Quilt Expo in Den Hague, Holland, as the 2004 winner of the Jewel Pearce Patterson Award from Quilts, Inc. Students will start a quilt that reads as a sunset over laid with a crown of gorgeous machine appliqué tulips; embellished with thread painting and more. The workshop will focus on designing the machine appliqué tulips. Your pattern will include three different background selections, each in a large and small size and 31 pages of printed material, 6 large printed sheets of templates and a CD that includes pictures of the student quilts that hung in the 05 “Celebrate Holland” special exhibit at the 2005 Houston Quilt Festival.
