Learn how bestselling and critically acclaimed author Frances O'Roark Dowell was inspired by another artist to make her quilt, Sit-In. See how her work changed as she began to explore different design options in this "Go Tell It" video from the Quilt Alliance.
Presented by the Quilt Alliance: "The first QuiltCon was presented by the Modern Quilt Guild in 2013 and the Quilt Alliance was there documenting quilts and makers with a brand new video documentation project called Go Tell It at the Quilt Show! The annual show has provided a great opportunity to document the changes in both modern quilting and the show itself. Join QA Project Manager Emma Parker for a guided tour of the QuiltCon Go Tell It! collection including brand new videos from the 2024 show in Raleigh. Modern Quilt Guild Executive Director Karen Cooper will join Emma for a Q&A after the screening." Register today and watch when this episode airs this Wednesday, April 24, 2024, at 2 PM EDT.
