Stilly River Sage Quilting songs (31) RE: Help: quilting songs 06 Dec 24


I'm not sure how long this link will be live, but PBS regularly plays "The Best of Sewing With Nancy" (Zieman). She was on the air for many years and after her death in 2017 old episodes are brought out for this current series. She did a lot of quilting demonstrations.

In this particular program (the last episode of what she called season 33) had a woman using computerized "sew by the numbers" software to create quilt patterns from original photographs.

Starting at 20 minutes into the program (titled "How to Sew Art - Part 2") she had as a guest a performer who specializes in songs about sewing and quilting. Lil' Rev is his performing name. He has been on the program before but I don't know what episode. On this program he sings "The Quilter's Shanty" and "Reap What You Sew" and he says the one man show he was presenting around the country at the time was called "Scraps of Quilting Music."

Here's his YouTube page.

This is the Google search on him.
