Whether you are running a race or creating a quilt you are never alone as long as you carry with you the memories and the lessons learned from your loved ones.  Join liZ and Elizabeth as they talk about running marathons and the history of Sampler Quilts.  Then stayed tuned for "I've Got a Notion" to hear all about how the zipper came into being.

I was right...this race would be epic.

Lemony Snicket said in his first book of “A Series of Unfortunate Events” Sanctuary is a word which here means a small, safe place in a troubling world.  
Join Elizabeth and liZ as they walk you through the art of creating a french knot, the history of the Notre Dame cathedral, and of course, creating a sanctuary.

Sanctuary

It takes a hive of about 60,000 bees all working at the endless cycle of pollinating, gathering nectar to make golden, delicious honey...and it takes a hive of women an afternoon gathered around a set of frames to hand quilt about 60,000 stitches into a quilt top.
Travel back in time with Elizabeth and liZ to the days of quilting bees to learn about their origins...and discover that you might just need to hold a quilting bee of your own.
