American Patchwork & Quilting Radio - July 16, 2012

Guest - What I love best about this radio show is finding guests who have a something "unique". Something that quilters can learn from. I recently heard about Marilu Henner's book on memory from a quilter who is taking her online memory workshops and using the workshop to create a series of quilts depicting her memories. Well I got Marilu's book and contacted her to ask if she would like to be on the show. Marilu Henner has starred in over thirty films, six Broadway Shows, and two hit classic sitcoms, Taxi and Evening Shade. She is a five time Golden Globe Nominee and is also a New York Times Best-selling Author of nine books on health, fitness, and lifestyle improvement. Her ninth book, "Total Memory Makeover: Uncover Your Past, Take Charge of Your Future!" was released in April and is a New York Times Best-seller.

I've been a huge fan of Shelly Zegart for years.  Shelly is a renowned quilt collector, curator, author and lecturer on both antique and contemporary quilts. Her love of American quilts began in the mid-1970s when she was inspired to hang quilts with other art on the walls of her newly built contemporary home. Today I have we have the pleasure of getting to know Shelly and learn about her background and current project "Quilts Matter"
