Back from Vacation Podcast #61

James and I popped off to Charleston this past weekend for a short trip to visit family and hang out together. In this week’s podcast I share about the trip and my major obsession: freeform crochet!

I think I’m mostly loving freeform crochet because it’s the perfect project to work on while I’m editing Mally the Maker. I’ve spread out over my couch with yarn, crochet hooks, and the printed book galley and as I crochet, I’m listening to the book being read to be via Natural Reader.

That’s an app that will read anything to you in a fairly robotic voice, but it’s still good enough for me to be able to get lost in the story. It’s amazing how easy is to miss small words in sentences, especially when editing the book and by listening to it, I’m hopefully catching most of them.

Did you catch that missing word? Our brains are magnificent at filling in gaps like that so listening really is the best way to edit in my opinion.

So that’s the podcast for this week! Next week I’m going to share another goddess quilt story about Torrent of Fear. I feel like this is the perfect quilt to talk about next because sharing like this is scary and I have to push myself to be so open and share from my heart.

I hope you’re looking forward to that and YES! There will be new quilting design videos coming Friday! I missed my design last week while on vacation so we’ll definitely have a new one this week.

Let’s go quilt,
