Ricky is going to be on the Quilt Alliance's StoryBee series. What is StoryBee all about? Here's the latest from the Quilt Alliance:

 

StoryBee is a new members-only web series from the nonprofit Quilt Alliance. It's a way for us to say "thank you!" to our members and to come together to enjoy stories from prominent quilt lovers across the country (and the world). Why StoryBee? Just like you'd bring your best thimble and your best stories to a quilt bee, we want to bring you little slices of life from across the quilt world.

 

They recorded the first section of Frances O'Roark Dowell's interview with Ricky prior to the devastating fire that surrounded Ricky's new home in La Veta, Colorado. In the studio tour that Ricky recorded after the fire, you can see the dramatic damage to his beautiful Autumn Rock acreage. Miraculously, his home and studio were spared by the fire.

 

If you'd like to watch Ricky's episode and all the other great StoryBee interviews they have coming up, make sure to join or renew your Quilt Alliance membership today! Memberships start at $30 ($20 for students). Memberships are renewable annually and tax-deductible. Wouldn't a membership make a great gift for your quilting friends?
