Stitched on NPR January 17th

Hope some of you can listen to this.  Posted: Phyllis

 

Hello friends,

Tuesday, January 17th (tomorrow) NPR will be talking about the movie Stitched on "The State of Things". Both Jena Moreno (the director) and I will be interviewed by the host Frank Stasio at 12:00 noon EST.

Last weekend there were six showings of Stitched in the Chapel Hill area and they were well attended. Jena and I were at all of them to answer questions after the movie.

Stitched has now been accepted into seven film festivals and has won prizes at two festivals. It is a fun quirky movie about quilting that follows three art quilters for one year as they create their quilts for the biggest annual quilt show in the world. The quilt show takes place in Houston, TX and hosts between 55,000 - 60,000 visitors. It is the largest conference held in Houston every year.

Please tune in on your radio if you live in North Carolina, WUNC  91.5FM Chapel Hill / 88.9FM Manteo / 90.9FM Rocky Mount. 

If you don't live in NC, you can listen on the internet: http://wunc.org/programs/tsot

Since this is a live show, you can call in with questions. I encourage you to do this. It would be great to show what a large and lively crowd we quilters are! When Diane Rehm interviewed an art quilter from OH, they had so much interest that the site crashed.

Please feel free to forward this to friends.

Thanks,
