Perfect Hand Applique with Thimblelady
|
Introduction from Marti MichellIf you know me or know of me, you may be saying, "Why is she writing a foreword to this book? She doesn't even do hand applique!" That thought crossed my mind before I was reminded that you don't have to be an expert to recognize and expert. Liuxin's handwork is incredible. It is actually how we met. I went to Australia to teach at quilt symposium. I arrived the day before it began and was taken to a preview of the quilt show. I casually walked the aisles until suddenly my eyes were riveted to a beautiful hand-quilted quilt. I walked closed and asked immediately to meet the quilter. "Oh that is Liuxin Newman. She is also a tutor, but she won't arrive until tomorrow. We call her the Thimblelady!" I have published books and written best-sellers and I was privileged to get a preview of this book. I loved the succinct way Liuxin dissected and presented hand applique. It is logical orderly, lavishly illustrated and encouraging! In addition, once you watch the video you will anxiously await an opportunity to meet Liuxin personally. So, I am happy and proud to write the foreword for this book on hand applique. I think you will be happy that you have pursued this method. About the AuthorLiuxin (pronounced Lee-oo-shin, a Chinese name meaning "be happy") is an award winning quilter from Australia. She fell in love with quilt making shortly after migrating to Sydney in 1994. Australia and quilting have given her a happy, busy and fulfilled life with a proud and supportive family behind her! Liuxin, aka Thimblelady is best known for designing a unique thimble and a quilting technique that can prevent chronic pains in quilters' hands. She is also known for her excellent needle skills in both fine hand quilting and find hand applique. Liuxin has taught and lectured at most prestigious quilting events and conferences in the world.
