The New Quilt 2024 Preview: Jane Rundle

 Nurturing the Pod is an improvisationally pieced quilt by Jane Rundle of Wakerley, Queensland.

Jane has been quilting since 1980, originally making traditional quilts, she now concentrates on constructing original art and modern improvisational quilts, some often with a twist on traditional design. Early traditional patchwork classes gave her a solid base to be able to construct anything she sets her mind to. Often, new quilts start with a piece of fabric on the design wall, and grow from there, mostly the quilt tells her what comes next! She is inspired by colour, shape and of course the texture of machine quilting. Machine quilting is her passion, she can often be found just doodling machine quilting designs.
