The Quilted Clamshell by Jen Eskridge
Introducing The Quilted Clamshell!
I’m so happy to finally share news about my fourth book, The Quilted Clamshell! The Quilted Clamshell is a collection of over 70 quilting designs to fit into the class clamshell shape. This reference book is a guide to developing your own unique designs using three simple variables. Sketch, plan, and quilt with confidence!
The book is a method to develop quilting designs. As a longarm quilter, time is invested in researching perfect designs to compliment customer quilts. In that research, I noticed there seemed to be a gap in designs where the clamshell was concerned. I doodled and drew as research for my own Glam Clam project. After some time, I noticed I approached the design process in the same manner: manipulating three variables. The Quilted Clamshell was born.
Unlike my other books, The Quilted Clamshell is entirely self-published. The book is available through Amazon and as an ebook through ReannaLily Designs shop. Self-publishing is quite an adventure in and of itself. (That will be a blog post for another time!)
Watch how easy it is to create unique clamshell designs in this video collection: The Quilted Clamshell on Youtube.
See the process for creating quilted clamshells using a domestic home sewing machine. It is a piece of cake!
See how I quilted the clamshell designs in one continuous quilting line by following the path outlined in this blog tutorial.
