A Modern Quilting Bee on The Best of Sewing With Nancy
Often you hear the phrase, “Quilting Bee”. We’re sure your mind pictures images of old: Friends, family, fabric, and fun. The Modern Quilting Bee has all those elements plus more. Join Nancy Zieman as she journeys outside the Sewing With Nancy studio to celebrate the art of quilting at the The Great Wisconsin Quilt Show in Madison, Wisconsin, and watch A Modern Quilting Bee on The Best Of Sewing With Nancy online.
Modern quilting is a buzz word in the quilting community. Weeks Ringle, author, publisher, designer, teacher, lecturer, and fabric designer joins Nancy for a chat on modern quilting—quilting as a reflection of today.
One of Nancy’s favorite fabrics to work with – when making her Landscape Quilts – was hand-dyed fabric. Wendy Richardson is a master at dying fabric. Wendy joins Nancy and shares some of the processes she uses when hand-dying fabrics.
Nancy often said that she had the best job in the world, because she got to interview and learn from leaders and innovators in the sewing and quilting world. Lola Jenkins, quilter and lecturer, joins Nancy to share her quilting journey inspired by her life and heritage.
Nancy’s next guest and friend, Laura Wasilowski, shares her art quilting methods for combining slow-quilting and quick-quilting.
When most of us think of quilts, we generally think of bed quilts or wall quilts. In addition to two-dimensional, quilting is also three-dimensional. Lorraine Torrence, author, designer, and educator, joins Nancy to share her legacy exhibit of quilted garments.

Nancy’s legacy of teaching and sharing treasured fabric art forms with the world will forever be imprinted on us.

I have always enjoyed watching sewing with Nancy. I used her landscaping technique to design a Santa quilt, that came out beautiful. I display the quilt during the holidays.
Hannah W
lovely to even imagine getting together at a quilt show or quilting bee in these physical distancing times…

Like so many people, I felt like I “knew” Nancy, even though I never met her. I always enjoyed her programs. I wish that I could have attended a quilt expo in my area, but so many things have been cancelled, or gone virtual, this year. Thanks to the Stitch it! Sisters for continuing this site.

Many of the things that Nancy taught are still very valuable to know about. I’m so glad her teachings are still being shared.
