TEXTILE TALK: Stitched Stories with Emily Tull and Nikki Parmenter, presented by SAQA
Join us for a Textile Talk with Emily Tull and Nikki Parmenter, two artists with a shared passion for storytelling and stitch.
Emily Tull is inspired by the everyday. She's particularly interested in underdogs, whether they are endangered bees or human beings. Emily's work tells stories that highlight the natural world or hint at people's private lives. She is a thread painter who likens her stitch technique to drawing with colored pencils.
Nikki Parmenter creates large-scale, narrative, colorful, free machine stitched pieces. Find out how she plans and executes her art. Nikki's work tells stories from diverse cultures, literature, and the natural world.

Studio Art Quilt Associates, Inc. (SAQA) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote the art quilt: "a creative visual work that is layered and stitched or that references this form of stitched layered structure."
Founded in 1989 by an initial group of 50 artists, SAQA now has over 4,000 members: artists, teachers, collectors, gallery owners, museum curators, and corporate sponsors. With access to our museum-quality exhibition program, SAQA members challenge the boundaries of art and change perceptions about contemporary fiber art.
As a part of SAQA’s dynamic creative community, members can take their artwork and career to the next level. We offer a wide range of exclusive resources, mentorship programs, and professional opportunities.
In addition, SAQA documents the art quilt movement - our publications include full-color exhibition catalogs, the Art Quilt Quarterly magazine, and books like Art Quilts Unfolding: 50 Years of Innovation, and the Exploring Art Quilts with SAQA series.

      @@SAQAArtquilt I do have a question though. Unfortunately I have not heard the lecture on 20 modern quilts that opened QuiltCon 2024. Lisa Call is very clear in stating she makes textile art, and does not refer to her work as modern. In this video the fact that modern quilts are functional, washable, etc. is stressed as to discern them from art quilts. I can think of many quilts displayed at QuiltCon 2023 and 2024 that can be called ART quilts, even be entered into Quilt National. Their function is to be appreciated on walls only! Is this an example of how the definition of modern quiltmaking is evolving? It seems the distinction between art and modern is blurred in certain instances? In South Africa modern quilting is gradually gaining wider recognition. Attending QuiltCon is on my bucket list😄

    I have 'attempted' a few quilts over a lot of years and always feel trapped in the need to make perfectly designed and sewn items. Thus, I have avoided making them. Get inspired and then am rarely happy with my work. Seeing your work excites me to try again. Love the imperfect appearance, though it's definitely very 'thought out' and planned, I love the sense of freedom exhibited. You have released my fear of imperfection. Thank you. Your work is powerful and pleasant to behold!
