At our last meeting, our own June Mellinger (A 20 year veteran of Brother Sewing!) let us know that MQG and KS productions have collaborated to create a new tv series all about modern quilting, with Brother as a sponsor of course 🙂

Just in time for QuiltCon East, the show went live today! Check it out here – you can watch the first episode on Vimeo and it will also be airing on public television – channel listing is on their website. The first episode includes a lesson on choosing free motion quilting designs by Christina Cameli of A Few Scraps, Allison Evans and Heather Grant discussing ways to organize charity quilting projects online and Jacquie Gering showing the variations that can be achieved with walking foot quilting. Already watched Episode 1? The discussion continues below in the comments section!

From the producers:

“Fresh Quilting, the new public television show co-produced by the Modern Quilt Guild (MQG) and KS Productions, will air in February 2017 with an all-star lineup of modern designers and quilters. In this new series, innovative modern quilters reinterpret traditional techniques with a fresh, modern aesthetic.

In each episode, leading designers give a fresh twist on traditional designs and share quilting techniques to create high-impact quilts. By watching the show, viewers will learn design concepts and techniques they can use to create their own compelling modern quilt designs. Each episode also includes a segment on community sewing with tips from MQG members and leaders.”.
