Quilting Arts TV Episode 705: screenprinting with facial cloths

See my segment in Season 7 of Quilting Arts Television, episode 705:

It frustrates me that our local PBS line-up does not include Quilting Arts TV!  Luckily, anyone who is in the same boat as I am can order the series on dvd.  I got an early copy of the series and started watching them.  I learned how to install a proper "facing finish" on a quilt and it has already come in handy several times!  No matter what your level of experience in surface design or quilt making, there is a wealth of information in each episode.  I recommend it (and not just because I'm in it ;-).

  1. I'm in the same boat Leslie. I can't get Quilting Arts TV here in North Texas either, and I'm not happy about it at all! I would love to see this! I have QATV episodes 1 and 2 but that's as far as I've gotten purchasing them. Looks like I need to get busy and buy some more! D~~~~

  2. Season 7 seems really good: lots of information and an interesting variety of guests (and I'm not just saying that because I'm in Season 7!). I don't think it will disappoint you if you decide to order it.

  6. Yay, Jackie! I'm looking forward to hearing what you think. I loved doing the "save my UFO" segment. I think Pokey plans to post her quilt that we cut apart and I reassembled once the episode airs. I'm looking forward to posting about it, but it needs to stay under wraps till then.

  7. Great photo - love the gloves! I've seen you in action with your face cloth printing and it is pretty awesome. The sign of a true artist - creating art from mundane objects!

  8. Ha! The gloves: perhaps a slight improvement over my usual bright pink ones! Ha ha ha!

  10. Yes, Susie! Must we only see one another in Chicago/Houston when we live less than one hour apart?? LOL. Let's try to find a time to get together.

  11. I was part of series 300, and encountered the same...our 2 pbs stations did not carry the show, showed only traditional quilting! I think eventually they did show it.

    Congratulations! I don't have all the series, but I must get this one...

  12. And congratulations back to you, Julaine, for being in series 300! I would love it if our local PBS would start carrying it. Until then, at least we can order the series on dvd.
