Threads of SustainabilityAuthor: The Sustainable Quilter Bridget O'Flaherty
With climate change and environmental impacts becoming a common narrative in our daily lives, it seems like a great time to explore what sustainability looks like in the quilting, fibre and textile world. We hear from creatives, makers, manufacturers and producers from all over the world to discover what sustainability looks like to them and find out how they are contributing to a sustainable future. We celebrate the positive steps people are taking, no matter how small. Whether you're a hobbyist or a pro, you can bring sustainability into your practice. Join me as we take a deep dive into the environmental, social and economic impacts with Threads of Sustainability.

Episode 1
Sunday, 30 August, 2026
Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I share why I've decided to relaunch the podcast and how it is evolving in Season 4. While previous seasons featured conversations about sustainability, textiles, and creative practice, this next chapter will be much more personal.Over the coming months, I'll be documenting a major textile project as it unfolds, from the earliest ideas and research through grant applications, design development, studio work, challenges, and lessons learned along the way.Think of this season as an artist's diary: an honest look behind the scenes at what it takes to build a meaningful body of work and sustain a creative practice.If you've ever wondered what happens before an artwork reaches the gallery wall, this season is for you.In this episode:Why I stepped away from the podcastWhat has changed in my artistic practiceWhy I'm shifting from interviews to documentary-style storytellingHow I'll be sharing the realities of creative project developmentWhat you can expect in Season 4Thank you for joining me as I begin this new chapter.
