"Improv and Abstractions in   Antique Quilts"

Zoom lecture by

Marge Tucker

Wednesday, February 12, 2025

6:00 pm - 7:00 pm (Arizona Time)


Some of our quilting ancestors were ahead of their time!  We are not the first generation of quilters to discover improvisational quilting; but we may be the ones who have embraced it and made it mainstream.  In this trunk show, I display antique and vintage quilts that are improvisationally constructed.  I also show quilts that were inspired by my antique/vintage quilts. 

So much inspiration and some great lessons can be learned from these graphic and abstract "antiques."

Marge Tucker is an international award-winning quilt artist with a focus on abstract improvisational design.  She pieces her quilts without a definitive image of what the finished piece will look like.  Starting with a general concept and color palette she then sees where the quilt takes her.

Marge made her first quilt over twenty-five years ago for friends expecting their first child.  At that time, Marge didn't know that quilting would become her               passion and profession.

Marge has received numerous awards for her quilts, including "Best Machine Quilting" at QuiltCon and "Best Sewing Machine Workmanship Award - Modern" at the Pacific International Quilt Festival, "Best Use of Color - Innovative" at the Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival, as well as "Best in Show" at the South Shore Fine Art Festival in Cohasset, MA.  

Marge loves sharing the tradition of quilting with her students.  She teaches in person and online in her Rockland, MA studio and travels for in-person workshops throughout the United States.
