Not Your Granny's Quilt Show - Meet Amber Elliot of Alderwood Studio! - Ep. 96
play

02/19/24 • 91 min

Amber Elliot is the artist/pattern designer/quilter/educator behind Alderwood Studio. She has been sewing all her life, and has always loved bringing various fabrics together to give them new life. As a child, she used her grandmother's old clothes to create new fashion for her mom to wear. Then as a teen, Amber decided that she was going to make a quilt, so she did. Since then, Amber has quilted on and off, but when she started doing it more seriously, she realized that the design and the pattern layout was her favorite part. Up to that point, Amber had never used someone else's pattern. But, realizing that she wanted to try writing her patterns, she started purchasing patterns so she could learn how it was done. As Amber was building her pattern-writing skills, she had the idea for a subscription box that would bring fun projects right to your door (or inbox). In addition to the Modern Makes box, Amber felt compelled to create a pattern-writing course for budding designers. She decided to help other people do what she struggled to do on her own. If you know anyone who has taken her course, then you know that her platform builds strong partnerships in the quilting community. Amber believes in the old adage - "a rising tide lifts all boats". And as she pursues her dreams, Amber is now one of Riley Blake's new fabric designers! Her fabric line comes out this Fall, so call your local quilt shops to request it!
Amber's designs are beautiful and classically modern. They hold the title of "modern heirloom" and can be found in her shop online, in her book "Modern Heirloom Quilting" and at local quilt shops near you! Please enjoy Amber!

04/22/24 • 61 min

This episode is all about organizing your space. Amanda got some information from some of you from Instagram about the items you use to organize your fabric. In this episode, Amanda also interviews the CEO of Smart Labels, David Hewlett. Amanda was able to try the Smart Labels before the interview. The hope is to help add to the awesome collection of ways we organize our spaces, and inspire you if you need it. A quilter's space is a sacred space. Organization - whatever that looks like - helps the flow of creativity. Hopefully this is helpful for any of you who want ideas for how to store your supplies in a way that keeps you creating!

Not Your Granny's Quilt Show - Meet Janice Reimer of Prairie & Ocean! - Ep. 99
play

03/11/24 • 50 min

Janice Reimer is a Structural Biologist by day and a Quilter by night...and weekends. After resisting becoming a quilter for much of her life, Janice was introduced to EPP and whole-cloth hand quilting. The rest, as they say, is history. Janice was born and raised in the Canadian prairies, and after working in San Diego for three years, she returned to Canada. Janice's analytical mind helps her create modern-traditionalist quilt patterns that have eye-catching design and flow.
Janice's most recent pattern, "Saros", plays with the asymmetry of the cycle of eclipses. Its modern design is a visual delight, and appeals to the precision-focused quilter.
Since recording this episode, Janice became a QuiltCon ribbon winner with her quilt titled "Anechoic". She received the MQG Excellence Award. Go check it out!

Lacie Messerly is a quilter and podcaster. Her show motto "You can sit with us" is a call to welcome all quilters who feel like they're not welcomed or invited in some quilty spaces. Lacie started with other hobbies, such as cross-stitching, scrapbooking, and painting wooden signs. As a stay-at-home mom, Lacie was looking for something new to do, so reached out to her mom for help learning how to quilt. After rage quitting for a few years, Lacie picked it back up again and started sharing her makes in 2015 on Instagram. With some experience under her belt with making some t-shirt quilts and the infamous "Lips" quilt, Lacie formed Messy Quilts in 2022. In 2023, Ashelyn, Lacie's sister-in-law invited her to create a podcast to talk about quilting. The Grateful Thread podcast was launched with quick growth and a devoted following of "Thread Heads".

Lacie loves quilting and being able to share her gift with others, but also wants to be sure she's balancing her business and her personal artistic endeavors. Head to Lacie's website or her Instagram to see her beautiful work!
