Andrea Brokenshire, whose stunning and lifelike nature-inspired quilts have been a staple of quilt shows the last few years, is up next on our series highlighting the Quilters' Save Our Stories (QSOS) program from the Quilt Alliance. For her QSOS, Andrea, who has been a two-time guest on The Quilt Show, chooses to focus on her quilt Summer Solitude, which she made for her daughter. Among other things in this interview conducted at the Houston Quilt Festival, Andrea "explains her quiltmaking process, as well as fiber art as a therapeutic practice."
Fiber artist Andrea Brokenshire returns to The Quilt Show and breaks down how she creates one of her quilts from the ground up, including prep, photograph choice, and wrangling the quilting together. Also, Ricky will demonstrate how to make a New York Beauty block for the 21st Century.
