Jacqueline (Jax) Rula is an award-winning fibre artist specializing in creating soft sculpted art dolls. Jax began making dolls in 2006 and became a member of the Canadian Doll Artist Association (CDAA) in 2007. The next year she was accepted into the Grand National Quilt Show hosted at the Centre in the Square in Kitchener, ON. Her first award came in 2009 at the next CDAA convention and, in 2013, she was the guest artist for the Waterloo Region’s Quilt and Fibre Arts Festival. In 2014 Jax was awarded a Region of Waterloo Arts Fund grant for a project inspired by the Grand River Watershed; A Grand Fabrication: Truth, Tales and Art of a Heritage River. A Grand Fabrication has been shown in several locations including alongside The Quilt of Belonging during the Peace by Piece festival at the Cotton Factory in Hamilton in celebration of Canada’s sesquicentennial in 2017.
