- In 2007, Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims united with a simple mission: to create a show that would celebrate the stories and artistry of quilting. Thus, "The Quilt Show" was born. Now, with 17 years and 500 episodes behind them, their unwavering love, passion, and dedication have transformed "The Quilt Show" into a thriving global community fostering creative education, support, and growth. Join them in this discussion as they reflect on their journey.

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.
I've been a member since March 2007. They hadn't even started showing the videos yet. It's the one subscription I make sure to renew every year!
This was great. Now I have to go back to some of the shows Alex referenced & watch them. I've been a TQS member for years, but not from the beginning
Thanks for watching! So glad you enjoyed this Textile Talk. We had a blast with Alex.
“Ambassadors”
Great title!
