I met Jacqueline at quilt market in Portland several years ago. I had already made one of her quilts, but to see hers in person was amazing. I love working with rainbow colors on dark fabrics.

Awesome quilts! The movement is great in all of her quilts. I like to use blue, green, and purple a lot. Of course red, orange and yellow are really fun too.

It is amazing how black sets off color in a quilt and reaches into the soft moment of the soul with color. As in life, the darkest moments have the capacity to brings forth the most joy. Thank you!

WOW ! I always considered myself a “heritage” colors quilt person. But you have definitely turned me toward the black backgrounds with the beautiful jewel tone colors. I am in awe of your workmanship ~ truly a God given talent.

Blue and White, I love blue and white. I have yet to make a blue and white quilt, but I find these colors to be very calming on the eyes.

I think my favorite combination of colors is the pink and brown mixture, especially a reproduction look updated. My second favorite would be a black/white/red combination. Jacaqueline’s colors are so vibrant, it would be a wonderful departure from what I usually do to make one of these beautiful quilts. I have been a fan since I saw her first pattern. She just keeps getting better.

I love bright colors and the interplay of colors. A current project is completing a quilt and curtains for a granddaughter using some of her favorites – purple, yellow, turquoise, red, and lime green. The valance for her curtains is edged in purple prairie points, and one square of her quilt includes a similar prairie point motif. She’ll love it!
