    Such gorgeous quilting, as always. I just recently cleaned up my sewing/quilting area. They can get cluttered quickly, can't they? Lol 🙂

    As a fellow hobby quilter, online taught, I really appreciated this podcast and could relate to it on so many levels. It was good to be reminded that it is not about the best sewing machine or the best fabric or tools, but it is about creating and making something you love. I think there must be people who appreciate quilting for the social aspect (classes, retreats and guilds), which is fine, but I agree with Jennifer, it is so much work to take everything with you and you might not have all the tools you need. Then there are so many people who talk, it will be hard to be productive. Thanks for letting us listen in on your conversation!

    Yes! Most definitely! The joy of quilting is the actual QUILTING and making something wonderful. I love retreats, but find I get very little done and sometimes get over stimulated from being around so many people. Online learning is made for us introverts!

  5. Leah Day says:

    Absolutely! I've cleaned out every sewing space and now it feels like each space needs to be cleaned out again just to be sure I didn't just move things from one place to another. Lol!

    I have been binge listening to your podcasts all week while sewing. I found listening to them on this site saves the battery on my iPad, as Youtube requires the screen to be on, even if it's mostly audio. But I did start out the first few on YouTube. I'm up to this podcast at the moment and this one has resonated with me the most. I'm also an online learner, quilt as a hobby with no intention to sell, introvert. I can relate to you and Jennifer. Every month I make up some reason why I cannot go to quilt guild that's only 3 miles from where I live. One day…. one day I'll go. Thank you for everything that you do! I thoroughly enjoy, and most of all, look forward to your posts, podcasts and videos.
