What happens when bold, vibrant quilt designs meet a quiet, humble artist? On this episode of Breaking the Blocks, we welcome the extraordinary Sarah Hibbert. Her stunning creations feature whimsical elements like coffee cups and fried eggs, reminiscent of Andy Warhols flair. We discuss her unique artistic voice, shaped by her upbringing with a graphic designer father, and how she overcame shyness and creative blocks to express her true self through quilting.
Sarah opens up about her journey through the quilting community, where she battled imposter syndrome and found solace and acceptance. Quilting became her therapeutic refuge during difficult times, including miscarriages, and a way to connect with others. Learn about her ongoing hand quilting project, "Wild Blue," a meditative practice that serves as a personal journal of her life's experiences and emotions. Through Sarah’s story, we explore the powerful themes of healing, storytelling, and the strong sense of community within the quilting world.
In our heartfelt exploration of Sarah's artistic journey, we discuss her transition to working with linen, her unique use of color, and the deep influence of her graphic designer father. Listen to her touching anecdotes about incorporating her father's drawings into her quilts and the emotional process of letting go of such personal pieces. Sarah reflects on her achievements, the lessons learned through friendships and teaching, and her openness to future possibilities. This episode promises an inspiring and intimate look at an artist who has turned her creative blocks into stepping stones.
