Author Jennie RaymentAbout the Author

Having had no previous interest in sewing, Jennie got hooked in the late 1980's. In her boundless enthusiasm she started teaching, to share her habit with others. Her work is exhibited in various galleries and at shows and exhibitions around the world; she has written many articles for both magazines and books and currently writes for two internationally known journals. In 1994 she wrote 'Tucks Textures & Pleats', now a classic text on fabric manipulation techniques followed by 'Tucks and Textures Two', 'Tucked Up in Bed', 'Tinkering with Texture' and recently her latest inspirational book 'Creative Tucks and Textures for Quilts and Embroidery. All five books are about Jennie's intriguing, fascinating and innovative methods of fiddling with fabric and manipulating material.
