Episode 50—The Mountain Brook Craft Cooperative

Episode 50—The Mountain Brook Craft Cooperative

Our guests today are two members of the Mountain Brook Craft Cooperative located in northwest Montana. Carol Edgar is one of the founding members of the Cooperative and Sarah Anderson is the current president. (Sarah is also the author of the Spinner's Book of Yarn Designs by Storey Publishing.) The Cooperative formed 15 years ago as a way for its original five members to bring their products—quilts and other handmade items—to market. Since that time, the group has expanded to 19 members whose work covers a variety of media, including sewing and quilting, knitting, crocheting, painting, book art, and more.
