    Lina Owen has burst onto the scene to open up the discovery of quilting in her native language of Spanish through teaching, her DISCOVER QUILTING community and her podcast. And when I say burst I mean, she’s started a podcast, she teaches afternoon quilt classes for children, she created a brand new open studio in March and she has launched a series of annual English and Spanish speaking retreats on bag making and EVEN with Missouri Star Quilt Company each November!

    My guest today is Adam Eddy. He is an Engineer with a passion for woodworking and a family run business that blossomed from a small seed of an idea to building a sewing table that was high quality, custom built with the quilter in mind and with plenty of storage. Eddycrest Sewing Furniture is known for it’s beauty and craftsmanship but the reviews are all about the quality and service from the Eddy family farm to the quilter’s doorstep. Today on the podcast we’ll chat about how this family run business grew from scratch, how it caters to our quilting world, and how the family works together to make it happen.

    My guest today is Gloria Loughman. This is one of those episodes where I can’t imagine how I’ll catch all of the best bits to share with you because her list of achievements spans over 30 years. If you were to do a study on light, colour, photography and capturing all of that in your art quilts, Gloria’s website would the only place you need to go. She is known worldwide as the vibrant landscape quilter. If you’ve seen a special exhibit of her work up close or even poured through the galleries on her website it will steer your understanding of colour and value in a brand new direction !

    My guest today is Wendy Liu. She is a YouTube sensation on the do it yourself clothing scene, with videos ranging from the supplies you need to get started, all the way to thrift flips and viral dresses.

    She's kind of a dress queen, actually. She made her own wedding dress. She pounces on do it yourself projects that people are desperately trying to figure out on their own at home, like how to resize your jeans and making a dress from only scraps. She has such great playlists like Wendy Tries Everything, Self Care, Travel, and recently she even did a video on Pounding Flowers.

    Her YouTube channel is called WithWendy, and she is approaching A million and a half followers. It's a whole bunch of really original content.

    I'm so excited to chat today with Amy Butler. She is known worldwide for her colour and design as a multi passionate creator. You can spot her designs in a second. I think her aesthetic is best described as comfort, in my mind anyway, because every photo on her website evokes a sense of world travel, but also the joy and comfort of home.

    She has accomplished so much in her career, but always seems to follow her own unique path. And it's been brilliant to watch the journey of success through recurring self discovery. She's not afraid to embrace change. This episode is one of those ones that left me wanting to ask a hundred more questions.

    My guest today is Angie Knowles. She is a mixed media textile artist and online educator. I have been her friend for years online and had the chance to meet her in person finally at QuiltCon 2022. She is really into experimentation and pushing the boundaries of a process or technique.

    She takes it further than she thinks she can and then turns around and shares it with her audience. Her first online course is a series of classes on learning to design for your cutting machine. And her latest course is a wonderful exploration of rust dyeing fabric, which I absolutely love doing myself and I'm excited to explore the technique on the podcast.

    Jacquie Gering is a modern art quilter who likes to rethink quilting by listening and finding her own voice and translating that to textiles. She is known for her bold messages in quilting that make the viewer stop and think about what is happening in the world and how they can make a difference. She has accomplished so much in her quilting career and she is a sought after teacher and speaker, especially for walking foot quilting and I can’t wait to see what she brings to the stage as the featured speaker this year at QuiltCon 2024.
