June 26, 2017 6-26-17 Alex Anderson, Jenny Lister Chat with Pat on Pat Sloan's Talk show for American Patchwork and Quilting Radio
The first time I saw Alex Anderson was in my living room on my television for her HGTV show "Simply Quilts". Alex tells us how she really got that job, and how she moved from there into the first internet tv show at The Quilt Show. This is recorded live and I don't do any touch ups, so you find out we lost the connection but got her back!

Moda fabrics has a new partnership with the Victoria & Albert museum to reproduce the designs of fabrics in the collection for quilters. They are starting with a collection by the famous William Morris. I was delighted to spend time talking with curator Jenny Lister about why William Morris is important and seems perfect as the first collection.
