Get ready for a burst of color and creativity as we visit with the amazing Mac! We dove deep into her transition from social work and paper crafting into the vibrant world of quilting, sparked by a life-changing trip to QuiltCon. Mac shared all the deets on her journey as a quilting influencer, traveling the country and building a fantastic community through her YouTube channel. From her love of rainbow color schemes to her signature nail art, Mac’s passion for personal expression truly shines through. We even chatted about her favorite snacks, including a popcorn recipe that sounds like a total game-changer. It was a heartfelt session that perfectly captured the joy of making and the bonds we share through our craft!

The fun didn’t stop at quilting, as we explored everything from high-tech tools to adult LEGO building! We compared the magic of the Singer Memento and AccuQuilt machines while getting real about the struggle of balancing hobby time with "adulting." Mac also gave us a peek into her "modest" fabric stash and her tendency to collect patterns like they're going out of style. Between discussions on new applique techniques and a sweet closing poem about friendship, this episode was a total celebration of the maker spirit. We’re so inspired by Mac’s "old pro" energy and her love for all things bright and bold! Enjoy!
