12x12 - The International Art Quilt Challenge




Art and Soul Radio with Lesley Riley show

Summary: Quilting bees of bygone days have taken a whole new twist, thanks to the internet. The term bee was used to describe a gathering of peers to accomplish a task. And that’s certainly what the 12 collaborators of the 12 x 12 International Art Quilt Challenge have done – a virtual quilting bee. Join me along with four of the participants: Deborah Boschert, Diane Perin Hock, Nikki Wheeler and Kristin La Flamme. In this special 80-minute show you'll discover how it all came about, the teamwork, the inspiration, the logistics and the resulting book. This is sure to be a special one.
