QOF Episode 48 - Victoria Findlay Wolfe Nov 23, 2021

Show notes

Victoria Findlay Wolfe is an international award-winning quilter known for her designs which portray a sense of old school comfort while breaking the boundaries of contemporary design. They have elements of tradition but with a twist like a dissolving double wedding ring or a photo of her hands right in the quilt as part of the story. She trained in fine arts college as a painter who also sculpted and loves photography, but quilts have become her greatest passion. She is a sought after speaker, teacher, author, and fabric & pattern designer who loves quilting for herself and others through private commissions. Her quilts have been featured in private collections, in museums, and at quilt shows all over the world. Today, I have a chat with Victoria Findlay Wolfe.

So grab a cup of tea, sit back and join me for the Houston Quilt Festival 2021 faculty extravaganza. I guarantee you will be inspired.

QOF Episode 42 - Museum of Fine Arts Boston Oct 12, 2021

Show notes

Today my guest is Jennifer Swope, the David & Roberta Logie Associate Curator of Textile and Fashion Arts at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Their latest exhibit called Fabric of a Nation - American Quilt Stories is a rich historical presentation that spans 300 years of American Quilts. And I’ll quote the website directly to share that “the remarkable examples on view are by an under recognized diversity of artistic hands and minds from the 17th century to today, including female and male, known and unidentified, urban and rural makers; immigrants; and Black, Latinx, Indigenous, Asian, and LGBTQIA+ Americans."
The exhibition invites visitors to celebrate the artistry and intricacy of quilts and coverlets and the lives they document, while also considering the complicated legacies ingrained in the fabric of American life. I cannot even imagine the research and work involved in pulling together a project like this.

QOF Episode 41 - Ruler Quilting with Silly Moon Quilting Company Oct 05, 2021

Show notes

It's Episode 41! I’ve been so excited to have KELLIE KACZMAREK of Silly Moon Quilting Company on the show because I have never tried guiding my quilting at the needle of my machine with a ruler. I know, everyone’s doing this and I haven’t even tried it. Since recording this podcast I've taken one of Kellie’s online workshops and it was super fun! I do everything free motion or walking foot right now and I can’t wait to use this simple technique more often because I’m so behind the curve. Quilting with rulers is all the rage right now. Kellie and her husband built their Canadian owned, family run business from scratch when she wanted to start quilting with rulers that she could use both on her longarm and her domestic machine. And her husband said, I can do that, and a business was born. So let’s get right into it!

Welcome to Episode 40 of the Quilter on Fire Podcast! My guests today are the 2 quilting friends behind the business Brimfield Awakening. Their website is gorgeous and their patterns are fresh and colourful and it is all about a unique vintage style of English Paper Piecing. Wait until you check out their Instagram feed. You just can’t stop scrolling. Kim Martucci and Nisha Bouri teamed up to build their company after finding a little treasure in a pile of old textiles at their local antique market. That precious find led to some research and a quilting adventure in business.
