Alternative title: The One Where They Say Goodbye

As we close this extremely special chapter of our lives, we hope to stay in touch and keep spreading the quilty love out in the world! We cherish this little community of creatives that have found our words and voices to be a safe space and hope to continue fostering these spaces in the future.

We are so grateful to our listeners who found us early and followed this journey as we've grown together and individually.

Alternate Title: You Should Label Your Quilts...

We've been tradeshow buddies with Amy Milne of Quilt Alliance for about a year now, and have had this interview in the works for just as long! We have been anxiously waiting to capture the beautiful and powerful conversations that we share in person for you, our listeners, and are so thrilled to introduce you to this incredible human and her work.

Quilt Alliance seeks to document, preserve, and share American quilting heritage by collecting the rich stories that historic and contemporary quilts, and their makers, tell about our nation’s diverse peoples and their communities. We hope that you will feel inspired by today's interview to further value the beautiful creations and work that you create by documenting them for future generations!

We're back, after a recording mishap with our last episode!

Immediately after meeting our two guests, we knew that we needed to introduce them to the rest of you! They're not only amazing educators, but they've both created after-school sewing and quilting clubs for their students!

We were excited to drop this episode at a time of year that lends itself to planning the implementation of a creative program of your own! Whether you're a teacher, parent, or community member, we hope that you'll get some helpful tips and insight into what it takes to get started!

Today, we're joined by one of our most favorite quilters, and are so excited to share our conversation with Libs Elliott with you! From her brief stint at Crayola to her big jump in college studies, we learn all about the road that led her to create computer-engineered patterns at a time when modern quilting was still in its infancy.
