About Our Team

Meg Cox
Contributing Writer
A professional journalist since graduating from college, Meg was a staff writer for the Wall Street Journal for 17 years, where her beats ranged from agriculture to culture. Since leaving the WSJ in 1994, she has written four non-fiction books including a resource guide for quilters published by Workman. She has taken readers behind the scenes of the quilt world since 2008 through her popular newsletter Quilt Journalist Tells All. Meg has lectured to hundreds of guilds and groups and her writing on quilts has appeared everywhere from quilt magazines to the Wall Street Journal. Weirdest quilt writing gig: a gossip column called Megabites for Mark Lipinski’s Quilter’s Home magazine.
She serves on the advisory board of the International Quilt Museum in Lincoln, NE. and is past president of the nonprofit Quilt Alliance. Meg has been making quilts since her mother taught her in 1988 and belongs to two guilds, an art quilt guild and a modern guild. The hardest thing she ever had to do in quilting was an appearance on The Quilt Show with Ricky Tims and Alex Anderson when she had to produce a challenge quilt about a Broadway musical. She chose Sondheim’s Into The Woods and like many of her quilts, it featured words as well as imagery.
Meg started writing for Quiltfolk magazine in June of 2018 and has had multiple profiles in every issue since. She can’t imagine a more exciting way to study this huge, gorgeous country than through the lens of quilting.
