Episode 065

Heather Givans runs Crimson Tate, a quilt store, but it’s really a supportive community that lives inside a building. Heather brings her former high school art teacher and camp counsellor chops to the community she serves at the store.

Heather is a life-long learner and I love her endless curiosity about things (listen to the pod to hear about how studying languages led her to teaching art in a roundabout way). When she talks about all the things she’s gotten herself into (and out of!) there is such an undercurrent of joy in how she approaches things, and I find it so infectious. It shows up in her fabric design, and honestly, in every hug and laugh I’ve ever shared with her. (She gives the BEST hugs)
