Announcing… The Quilting Arts Podcast
We’re thrilled – over-the-moon, more precisely – to introduce the Quilting Arts Podcast, available shortly through all the usual podcasting channels.
What makes the Quilting arts Podcast stand apart from other shows about quilting? It is as much about creating unique art as it is about the inspiration and personalities behind the quilts. In the Quilting Arts Podcast, you’ll find a deep exploration of the complex intersection of ideas, influences, and techniques that make art quilting special.
In each episode, co-hosts Vivika Hansen DeNegre and Susan Brubaker Knapp take a deep dive into topics that explore the creativity and passion unique to fiber artists and the art quilting community. Their conversations will venture beyond the surface, from analyzing nuances of techniques to discussing the business side of exhibit curation. They’ll also invite an expert from their wide network of art quilting friends to join them as an Artist in Residence and add perspective to the conversation.
So, what’s in store for the first season? You’ll have to listen to find out, but here is just a little peek into what’s planned:
- Art in the Time of Crisis: How art quilters stay involved and keep creative when the world throws them a curve ball
- Pull out your Pens: How journaling and sketching can influence your quilting
- Pivoting: How can your artwork evolve over time?
- Artists as Influencers: Passing on your creative passion
- Colorful Encouragement: Text on quilts
Meet the Co-Hosts
Susan Brubaker Knapp is a fourth-generation quilter who made her first quilt in 1973 with her mother, a former home economics teacher. It was another 20 years before she made her second quilt and caught the quilting bug for good.
Susan is the long-time host of the PBS show Quilting Arts TV; a sought-after international art quilting teacher; and the founder and co-curator of the “A Better World” exhibition series.
Vivika Hansen DeNegre is the Director of Content for QuiltingDaily.com and leads the creative team behind Quilting Arts Magazine and related titles. When not editing, writing, or showcasing the work of other art quilters, she cooks, gardens, knits, and quilts. Vivika currently serves on the board of directors for both Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA) and the Modern Quilt Guild (MQG).
