Episode #300: Maria Shell
Episode 256

On today's episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast, we’re talking about quilting with my guest Maria Shell. Maria’s work is grounded in the tradition and craft of American quilt making. She strives to take the classical components of a traditional bedquilt and manipulate them with the hope of creating surprising combinations of pattern, repetition, and color for the viewer. +++++ This episode is sponsored by Quarry Books.
