March 04, 2019 Guests: Mallory Donohue, Nancy Mahoney, and Jenny Wilding Cardon join Pat for a chat!
One of the best things about working with Baby lock is meeting the other ambassadors that work in with the machines. Mallory Donohue make a lot of things, specializing in clothing. I first ‘found her’ by her wonderful videos on how to use the Sashiko machine. She and her mom Zede run SewHere.com. Which is about teaching sewing for everyone via their website, videos, FaceBook lives, and podcasts. We chat about making clothing that fits as we quilters have amazing fabric we can use for things other than quilts!
----
Who do I turn to for questions on the quilting design program Electric Quilt? My good friend Nancy Mahoney! She has been using the program for years, is and EQ Ambassador, and knows the ins and outs. I wanted to tell you about some of the features you might not know about with Nancy as our guide!
---------
I was so excited to see Jenny Wilding Cardon’s book Visible Mending. The idea of artfully mending items is on the upswing and her book has so many fantastic ways to do this. Things we quilters will love! I first saw visible mending in about 1973 when one of the girls a few grades older than me was doing this to her favorite jeans. The one I remember most was a pocket, with zipper, on the inside thigh of her jeans. She kept her lunch money there.. it was the 70s.. the jeans had elephant bells and she was very on trend! Jenny also works for Martingale as an editor in charge of their online blog, facebook and Instagram account. She is incredible, you are going to love her!

Kerry Foster of Penny Dog Patchwork is a self professed serial crafter, I like that! She has been working in the crafting industry sharing her things and when she learned to quilt has done the same. Her newest book is Paint by Number Quilts. This is her signature applique method of creating amazing animal quilts.

I love Barbara ‘B’ Cain’s fresh style of quilt pattern, She is an author and pattern designer. I am super fond of her airplane & blimp!! Also the bee, I see a pattern of flight here! I really love her use of color too.

One of my favorite things about working in the quilting industry is making new friends through. I had meet Christopher. But it was when we were both at a Baby lock ambassador event that we really had to change to chat. We’ve been friends ever since. He is a fabric designer for Riley Blake and creates amazing projects with his lines.
