Fiber Artists Coalition is a group of Midwestern textile artists all of whom are professional members of Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA) . We have joined together to promote the art quilt by bringing this exciting art form to the public through traveling art exhibits.

Ours are not bed quilts, but art works created from commercial fabrics as well as those we design ourselves. Some of the techniques FAC members use are: dyeing, painting, stamping, printing, batik, shibori, discharge, embellishment, collage, and assemblage. Many of our works are hand or machine stitched and/or quilted.

Fiber is organic, and fiber art is vibrant, alive, warm and inviting. We hope you will share our enthusiasm for this unique medium and enjoy the art.

Studio Art Quilt Associates, Inc. is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote the art quilt through education, exhibitions, professional development and documentation. Founded in 1989 by an initial group of 50 artists, SAQA members now number over 2,900: artists, teachers, collectors, gallery owners, museum curators and corporate sponsors.
