Listen Later

In this episode of the Patchwork Revival Podcast, I’m sitting down with Kate Bierle of Due North Handmade: a passionate quilter, pattern designer, and storyteller. Kate shares how her grandmother’s quilting legacy sparked her own creative journey, leading her to create stunning quilt designs that honor tradition while embracing modern creativity and innovation.

In this episode, we’re diving into:

✨ How Kate fell in love with quilting
✨ Her transition from hobbyist to pattern designer & quilting entrepreneur
✨ Her discovery of the history of the 'Ladies Wreath' quilt block and its ties to the suffragist
     movement (find a FREE tutorial on Kate’s blog, HERE!)
✨ How quilting communities foster creativity, support, and lifelong friendships
✨ The importance of documenting your quilting journey for future generations

Whether you’re a seasoned quilter or dreaming of the quilt you’ll someday make, this episode is packed with inspiration, storytelling, and a pinch of quilting history.
