Philadelphia Artist, Rachel Derstine

6/5/2023

Rachel Derstine and the many words of wisdom she shared with me yesterday over coffee in her Philadelphia home and studio are much on my mind today. Rachel is not only a highly skilled teacher and a remarkable fine artist, but she is also generous and kind. She easily shares her experiences and what she has learned from them.

We talked about the difficulties of selling patchwork quilts as works of art. Rachel recommended The Art Storefronts Organization and The Academy for Virtual Teaching, as well as Global Quilt Connection. I'm definitely interested and will be investigating these and other sites in coming days and weeks. If you know of any other useful resources for quilters selling art, please leave a comment below.

Mostly, I post on Facebook to tell you about my travels and life experiences, point out people and things that I want to tell you about, and keep you updated on what's happening in my life as an art quilter.

But here on my blog, I inform you about what I'm doing as an art quilter, give you tips and tutorials about what I have done and learned as an artist, share what I'm doing now to continue my personal growth, and offer insights that may affect you as a quilt artist.

Find here my tips and tutorials, philosophy of art, connections with other artists, and a wealth of information that, hopefully, you can learn from and use going forward.

No matter what stage your quilting career is at present, you can find something here that will inspire, teach, or support you in your quest to make quilts as art.

Becoming an art quilter is a long, uphill struggle, and you need all the help you can get. Why not start here with me as I move into an entirely new phase?

Ask questions, offer comments, and share experiences. We're all walking the same path, and it will be great to have your company along the way!
