About this episode
Victoria Findlay Wolfe is a New York City-based award-winning quilt artist, teacher, and author whose work balances modern, traditional and art quilting styles. A farm girl raised in Minnesota, her influences are heavily based on her grandmother’s scrappy colorful double knit polyester quilts which started her on this textile journey. Her quilts have traveled the globe with notable exhibits across the US and in Japan, Australia & UK. Victoria won ‘Best in Show’ at the first QuiltCon in 2013 with her quilt, “Double Edged Love,” the first in her large series of double wedding ring quilts, for which she is well-known. She was honored to be featured in the Craft in America: Quilts episode in 2019 on PBS. Currently, her "Option Expedition" quilt series is on display at the International Quilt Museum. Her quilting books include: 15 Minutes of Play, Double Wedding Rings, Modern Quilt Magic, Playing with Purpose, and most recently, The Quilting Experience: A Celebration of Community & Patchwork Patterns (September 2024). Victoria also designs quilt patterns, acrylic templates, fabrics, and more, available at her online quilt shop, VFWquilts.com. Victoria is the founder of the New York City Metro Mod Quilt Guild. She is actively involved in the quilting community and has served as a board member of the International Quilt Association, the Quilt Alliance, the International Quilt Museum, and the Wisconsin Museum of Quilts & Fiber Arts.
