ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Nicholas Ball is an improv quilter from Cardiff, South Wales. After graduating art school in 2006, it would be some six years before the quilting bug bit. With a passion for improv quilting, Nicholas’s aesthetic is an organic one, preferring to sew without the use of patterns or templates. He takes a lot of inspiration from the natural world, and his vegetable patch quilts showcase his love for liberated sewing.
