Modern quilt artist Andrea Tsang Jackson returns with a book designed to spark creative experimentation and play. She explores five key themes through essays about creative practice: finding order in chaos, creating safe spaces for experimentation, surrendering to process, taking creative responsibility, and building community through craft. The essays are complemented by "Quests," which put these concepts into practice, involving hands-on quilting projects that help readers develop both technical skills and creative confidence. The book offers both specific instruction and open-ended exploration, making it valuable for quilters seeking to deepen their practice and develop their creative voice.
Andrea Tsang Jackson is a textile artist, quilt designer, author and teacher. After working in various design fields and settings ranging from architecture to museums, the quilting medium called to her as a way to explore place, belonging, and agency. She holds a Master of Architecture from McGill University and a Master of Education from the Harvard Graduate School of Education. With her art, Andrea strives to push the limits of the quilting medium by exploring scale and dimension and moving traditionally domestic objects into the public realm. Her work often celebrates community and collaboration, and explores ideas of belonging. The rich history of quilting also heavily influences her practice; she sees it as an extension of community across time. Andrea's first book, Patchwork Lab: Gemology, was published by Lucky Spool in 2019. Andrea lives in Kjipuktuk / Halifax with her husband and two sons.
