Tammy Thielman - Therapy Based in Nature
04/27/22 • 29 min
Tammy Thielman has a remarkable clinical practice - she offers counselling on her farm in southern British Columbia, Canada. Animals...corrals...forest trails...toy herds...quilts...cabins...fireside armchairs...all these are part of her multi-faceted approach to therapy.
Tammy and I chat about these points of connection, and also about how quilting and creating helps fill up HER mental cup. It's so true, the value in creating has nothing to do with skill level, and everything to do with the heart that goes into it.
If you'd like to see a little of the beautiful environment Tammy's created, check out her website here.
And Tammy shares some of her littlest makes on Instagram here: @little_cabin_quilts
Want to try free motion quilting but don't know where to start? Here's 3 simple steps to get going.
Are you looking to ADVANCE your machine quilting skills?
Machine quilting can be very solitary, especially on a longarm. It's just not that easy to pack up your machine and head to a friend's house for the day, right? But it's important to have that community - that sharing of ideas and tips, encouragement and motivation.

PJ Jacobsen - the "Crazy Quilter"
PJ Jacobsen is a quilter with a story! She's been a lot of places in her life, but a massive medical emergency resulted in a complete start-over for her and her husband. They purchased an abandoned church from Ebay, and set out to build a home for their family, and then a quilting retreat, with their own hands.
These days the Crazy Quilter Retreat Center (in central Washington state) hosts up to 20 crafters with all kinds of lovely amenities like sauna and hot tub, and PJ even washes the dishes for her guests!
PJ is also a midwife, quilting shop owner, and teacher of all things quilt-y. You'll love her stories!
PJ and the retreat center can be found right here:
