We hear from many quilters that the reason they started quilting in the first place is because they wanted to make a gift for someone else – and many times that gift comes in the form of a baby quilt or even a small blanket for a special pet. In this show, we share some special considerations to have before making a quilt for a little one or an animal. We also share tips for fixing tension problems on your sewing machine, the ombre fabric trend we love, and what to look for when shopping for a longarm quilting machine.

599: Quilt Market 2023 Recap

Ann Lauer is an award-winning fiber artist who has been professionally designing and creating quilts, quilt patterns and kits, and quilt fabric for more than twenty-five years.
In 2021, Ann and her husband, Ron, were visiting Uganda to visit the Impenetrable Rainforest Gorilla Refuge. In addition to seeing gorillas, they stumbled upon an organization of quilters called Ride 4 a Woman and their incredible work to lift up women in their community through quilting and basket making. She's continued to support the organization and just returned from another trip there.
