I spent Wednesday, Feb 16 in a TV studio in Cleveland, Ohio. That's me with Pokey Bolton, friend and host of QA TV (and she does a million other things, like Quilting Arts & Cloth Paper Scissors magazines.) I started at 8am in make up, and filmed 3 segments for Quilting Arts TV, Series 800. (You'll be able to start pre-ordering in July, and shipping starts around the 3rd week of July)
Pokey makes the segments relatively easy, as she asks great questions and is loads of fun.
That's me listening intently to the Producer. I did a needle-felting segment too. You can see Suzanne Morgan's Everthing Kit on the left, that's what I used to create my Venice pieces.
Jeannie Cook-Delpit, Bernina's director of national events was in the green room to teach me to use the Bernina machine and the needle punch attachment for my segments.
This is what the set looks like. That's Lindsey Murray on the right.
My work, spread out for one of the segments.
After filming the 3 TV segments, we started the filming of my hour long DVD around 3pm. Here I am. Ready!
Pokey was a special guest in my DVD. I taught her to draw and paint!
Here at I about 5pm, ready to start filming the final chapter of my DVD. You can tell I'm starting to tire. I don't know the title yet of the DVD, but it is based on my "Sketching & Watercolor: Journal Style" and will also show ways to use your original artwork in mixed media. I'll keep you posted!
Congratulations Jane! Very impressive to change time zones, and tape 3 segments and a DVD in one day. You must have broken some record! You rock!
ReplyDeleteGreat Stuff, Jane. I have learned to appreciate every show Quilting Arts TV and Pokey do. Your segments always lead to inspiration. These pictures were interesting and gives us a new appreciation of what it takes to inspire others in their art. You are a rock star in my world! Thanks....
ReplyDeleteJane, I am SO looking forward to watching your episodes on QA. I follow your blog and FB pages and want to see you moving and grooving as you create.

ReplyDeletehonestly, Jane, your work is so amazing ... reading thru this post, I got all choked up. no, seriously. i have a stuffy nose and teary eyes. YOU ARE SO TALENTED, and SO GENEROUS with your artfulness.
