TQS Members are loving Show 2106: TQS Challenge with Meg Cox, Alex Anderson, and Ricky Tims. Here's are just a few of the comments Meg's show has received.
"I didn't think I'd like this show, because I'm not a big fan of Broadway...but, I had some hand sewing to do so I went with it....I'm so grateful to you all! It opened my heart and reconnected something in me that I hadn't realized had gone quiet....of course, there Kleenex all over the place now and I'm humming tunes from old B'way shows. This is one of the best episodes EVER!! Many thanks." - Leighway
"Thank you for such a moving and inspiring show. This show really reached the essence of great quilting." - Judith123
"This was a great show. What an inspiration Meg Cox is." - lbarnes
Meg herself writes about the show in the latest edition of her newsletter, Quilt Journalist Tells All!
"There are a couple of things that are unusual about my episode: first, it's a TQS Challenge episode meaning that Alex and Ricky challenged me (and themselves) to make a quilt on a specific theme. This isn't the first challenge episode but the first where the theme is Broadway musicals. It's no secret that Ricky is an ardent fan of "Hamilton," so it's no surprise that he would pick that show. But you'll have to watch what musicals Alex and I chose. Each of us demonstrate key techniques in our quilts and I learned some really valuable tips from what they both did.
The really unusual part about my episode is how deeply personal and emotional it ended up being: our shared topic was making meaning and they got me talking frankly about the death of my husband. I've been touched to see that multiple subscribers of the show have posted comments saying this is one of the best episodes ever, and some were moved to tears.
One quick viewing tip: you can watch the entire hour-long episode at one go, or you can click on the various "chapters" listed. The emotional part is the "after set" conversation at the end."
