Inappropriate Quilters

Listen in as Rochelle fills Leslie in on her vacation to Hawaii and about the fabric store she visited. Leslie talks about one of her past vacations where they stopped at some quilt stores on the way to the beach and purchased not-so-great quality fabrics. You have to be careful of what you buy! Also, beach photos with your quilts are game-changing. If you're on vacation, take your quilts!  They also talk a bit about ticker-tape blocks and invisible thread. Leslie has a new table for her studio and goes over the features! Find out about the 5 Love Languages and what it has to do with this podcast!

Rochelle is still suffering from her concussion and it is obvious! She stalks a man in Walmart for starch and then talks about all of the shortages of our stuff. Rochelle talks about Lance's WHO and it is an extreme WHO. Update on the ruler drama... wear a glove! And it's time to talk about the next generation of quilters. What are we doing to bring up the next group of stitchers? Rochelle is now obsessed with the new Tula Pink line and has been working on a quilt from Doug Leko's book Stashtastic. They also talk about using color catchers. There is a shortage of these magic squares and they certainly come in handy!

Rochelle is heading to Hawaii and preparing for other trips. Luxury immunizations? Who knew! Rochelle is told she is a fast-talker since we interviewed Angela. What do you think? She also attends a work event with Lance and meets one of our listeners who let us know which episode was the best. Can you guess which one? Camille Roskelley gets Leslie distracted from finishing Hocus Pocus by recoloring her quilt patterns with all of her new lines...No focus for Hocus Pocus! Tula Pink releases her new line and it's spectacular! Leslie and Rochelle talk all about it and Leslie gets an apology/not an apology from Lori Holt. Find out why! Finally, they talk about all things paper piecing. Foundation, English, all the things. Triangle paper, flying geese, log cabin... all make it easier to get accurate piecing. They end with a conversation about scraps. So many scraps! Enjoy!

Leslie and Rochelle talk about Block of the Month programs coming up and the social influence bias that comes along with these types of programs. Friends shouldn't let friends BOM alone. Leslie takes up crocheting by watching Lori Holt videos (link below). They talk about their friend Kim and her sew-jo and her incredible knitting and sourdough bread-making talents. Hear about Leslie's take on the first time she met Rochelle. It may not be what you think! They also talk about procrasti-napping (termed by Veruschka Zarate) and starching with applique. This episode is packed with banter and sprinkled with good info! Don't miss it!

Rochelle and Leslie are packing up to head to Liberty, MO to see Angela Walters and stitch for 4 days with their friends! Super exciting! Rochelle apologizes to more long-armers. Leslie is a 'fan' of the Baptist Fan… see what we did there? She would use it for every quilt if Rochelle let her. But, using the same pantograph is fine! They discuss ways to make it unique! Find out what it means when Rochelle says “huh”. Rochelle convinces Leslie to try a different type of batting and she goes kicking and screaming. Listeners blaming the gals for them ramping up their Joe. Private Joe vs Major Joe. Rochelle decides she is going to channel her inner Leslie again for the Angela Angela Angela retreat. Rochelle is normally Miss Congeniality. But she is trying to focus!

Rochelle and Leslie are huge fans of Veruschka Zarate (Pride and Joy Quilting). She’s an amazing modern paper piecer and we ooh and ahh over her work! She is tempting Rochelle with her no-spend September. Find out what Rochelle wants to buy and can’t until October

In this episode, Rochelle and Leslie talk about BBL... backing, binding and labels. This is something we all seem to put off until the end and perhaps there is a better way! They also talk about all their favorite quilters and designers. Rochelle has to apologize to all long armers everywhere and still can't spell. This episode is packed with fun stories about favorite snacks, weird antics of Rochelle's husband, Lance and what a big deal Leslie is now (since Rochelle was a big deal last week).
