I have been quilting since 1991 after visiting the Kernewek Lowender, my local group’s quilt show display. Since that time I have led a very full life as a farmer's wife, mum to 3 children, a dog and 2 cats, finance lending officer, teacher, designer, and business owner. Plus, I now have 'nana' duties as well.
Constantine Quilts was born in 1998, supplying quilting supplies to local students and quilters in the local area. 2000 saw my first longarm being delivered only 4 days after a car accident, which made me question my ability to quilt and nearly didn't keep going in this direction.
But I did keep quilting, learning, and growing. So much that I now focus on encouraging others to succeed in their own machine quilting endeavours and supporting those wanting to create their own businesses in this industry.
Constantine Quilts is my retail arm that provides notions, rulers, threads, and inspiration for all who endeavour to complete their own quilts.
For 10 years until 2018, I provided the opportunity to self-educate by running the Australian Machine Quilting Festival in Adelaide (the capital city of South Australia).
I am thrilled that I now have the Machine Quilting Academy online to support those in the business of machine quilting since 2020.
I’ve also had a side project and am proud to be a best-selling author in the 'Rural Business Women' book that inspires and encourages rural and regional women to be successful in their own businesses."
My Workshop
Stippling, also known as meandering, is one of the most basic and versatile FMQ designs. It involves stitching a continuous line that curves and loops without crossing over itself. While stippling is often used in smaller, tighter patterns to fill spaces, a large stipple takes a more expansive approach. The loops are larger, and the design covers more ground quickly, creating a flowing, organic pattern.
The beauty of large stipple quilting lies in its simplicity. It’s a forgiving design that doesn’t require perfection, making it an excellent choice for quilters of all skill levels. Moreover, it’s an efficient way to cover large areas of a quilt, which is especially useful for those who want to stabilize their quilt sandwich before diving into more intricate designs.
While the large stipple design is often used as a standalone FMQ pattern, it can also serve as a “spine” for more intricate quilting designs. Think of the large stipple as a foundation or roadmap that you can build upon with additional quilting motifs. This approach not only enhances the visual interest of your quilt but also allows for a more structured and cohesive overall design.
Join me to explore some of the possibilities of embellishing your quilt using the large stipple as a spine.
