Meet "Lola Bear" by Lola Jenkins

Lola writes,

"Lola Bear loves wild and bold colors.  She does not like being alone.  During the winter months she tends to get really cold hands so she wears socks to keep them warm. She loves to laugh, talk and play.  Her favorite drink is a cup of sweet tea.  Lola Bear is a great listener.  If you have any problems she is there to help you solve them.  But most of all, Lola loves to be hugged."

Star Members can watch Lola in Show 1809: Portrait Collages and Binding Concepts.

Lola Jenkins has brought a unique vision through her incredible art quilts. Her quilts display the joy and freedom of pursuing her passion. Without any background in sewing, art, perspective, or drawing, she developed her passion. Through her courage and fearless approach in creating art quilts she has evolved to master-quilter status.  Lola states, "I don't know the rules, so I couldn't break the rules of quilting."

Lola has won numerous first place ribbons, best of show, judge’s choice award, and best use of color.  She has appeared in magazines, been the featured artist at numerous events, appeared on the Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims “The Quilt Show”, and is currently an instructor with Craftsy.com. 

Lola currently gives programs, trunk shows, workshops, and classes for guilds, cruise ships, retreats, and organizations across the U.S. and abroad.  She presents a hilariously funny, informative yet unforgettable program and trunk show that should be turned into a movie.  Her classes are taught with skill... they are unique... fun and worth their weight in gold.  She is known for her classes on portraits, fantasy collages, silhouettes, and thread art just to name a few.  Lola is reaching the masses with her unique style and vision.
