About Mark & Jodie
About Mark Lipinski:
Mark Lipinski is part quilter, part visionary, part comedian, part sage and a whole lot of combined calories! Creator and Executive Editor of Mark Lipinski’s Quilter’s Home magazine, Mark has taken the quilting industry by storm with his one-of-a-kind, contemporary and sometimes irreverent dive into the patchwork community.
Often referred to as a “Quilting Rock Star” and the “Bad Boy of Quilting” by the international mainstream press, Mark’s comedic sensibilities combined with his passion for quilting has infused the quilting world with a dynamic model for the future and has catapulted him to the top rungs of patchwork celebrity.
Besides his “Markazine,” Mark designs fabric for Mark Lipinski’s Home for Northcott, and his Pickle Road Studio designs are often featured in various quilting magazines. A multi Emmy nominated and Cable Ace Award winning network television producer for such shows as Oprah, The View, Ricki Lake, Crossing Over with John Edward, Sally Jesse Raphael and Joan Rivers, Mark hopes to trump them all with Quilt Out Loud. So move over Oprah, Daddy’s in the house!
About Jodie Davis:
Jodie has worked long and hard to realize her dream job: designing, writing, and traveling to bring the joy of creativity to people all over the world. Through the books she writes (thirty-plus so far), her designs for magazines and TV, and the videos she creates for QNNtv.com, Jodie aims to inspire others to jump into the fun of quilting.
For Jodie, creativity is a way of life and she has a knack for marrying her profession with her other passions. Her quilt shop cuckoo clock, inspired by a trip to Germany sold out. A rubber duckie collector, Jodie designed and imported her own quilting rubber duckie and now her duckie designs are showing up in her quilts and will soon be swimming on fabric at a quilt shop near you. It’s all good, clean fun!
