Kim Neidzweicki is a sewist, quilter, and pattern designer with a passion for social media. One thing I loved hearing from her on the podcast is that no one is really a social media guru or maven because it changes every single day. We get massive doses of the unknown from social media and there is so much pressure to go viral. It is intimidating. You finally figure out how to make a reel on Instagram and then TikTok comes along and steals the show. The hardest part of it all is just going gloves off and diving into the ring to try everything. It’s new to everyone. We are not alone. And Kim is out there spreading the word about how people can grow.

This week my special guest is Tracy Mooney. When I first met her recently at quilt festival in Houston, I learned first hand that it is very cool to meet a podcast personality and hear their voice in person for the first time. I'd been listening to the Quilt'n'Tell Podcast for a while. I started to feel like I was getting to know her and her fellow hosts.  It's kind of hard to believe you're meeting that person behind the voice on the podcast. Tracy Mooney is the Editor of Quiltmaker Magazine and Fons and Porter's Quick and Easy Quilts. She is Producer and one of the three hosts of the Quilt & Tell podcast with Lori Baker and Ginger Sheehy-Tatic.

She thrives in her roles because she is a deadline driven writer and journalist with over a decade of experience. So let's take a listen to her story...

These talks just work because these six knowledgeable women come at the topics from all different angles. It is important to them to bring the viewer along to learn quilt history. They want to bring about an understanding. They want to let quilt makers know how much value they can get by looking at older quilts.

I was particularly delighted to have Laura Kemshall on the show because when I first mentioned it to her at Festival of Quilt last year in the summer, Frankly, she was horrified,  she didn't want to do it,  but I did convince her. So she doesn't do many interviews, so I was excited.

This mother and daughter team (Linda & Laura) has literally pioneered the online learning space in creative arts, and they've brought it to the world in a way that sings to the student and lifts them up, and it's perfectly affordable. It was so incredible just standing in front of Laura's work at the show, at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham.

I'd seen it for years in magazines online, in her courses on the computer screen, but it just, when you see it in person, in front of your face, it just takes you in, tells you a story, and spits you out, inspired to make art. So I loved sharing Laura's story with you.

On Episode 104  Brandy interviews Pepper Corey. It's so nice to hear the story of a creator with a passion for quilting that has spanned the decades.

Hers is a story filled with hard work, dedication, success, and appreciating the history and memories of incredible quilts and their makers.

Get ready for the story of a quilter whose career is dedicated to serving others with coaching and training. But when she started quilting in 2020 during the pandemic, she had no idea she would fall head over heels for the craft and it would blossom into a quest to serve quilters with a wonderful attitude of generosity and community spirit. 

Bell Bruner is a southern gal who took up quilting in 2020 during the pandemic only to have it blossom into an incredible adventure, starting with gifts for family and friends, to offering quilting notions, writing patterns, and selling finished items on Etsy and so much more. I chat with Bell on the podcast about how quilting changed her path.

Karen King loves the modern quilt aesthetic and has a particular fondness for foundation paper piecing. She has had quilts juried into Quilt Con 2022 and 2023, the largest annual show of modern quilts in the world.

Her studio has grown to include a long arm machine and two resident feline supervisors, plus occasional foster kittens. Just for fun, Karen's favorite color is all of them, but she admits to a smaller stash of yellow, which I couldn't believe when I read that because my favorite colour is yellow. But cooking and music, especially from the band U2, and travel everywhere, especially if U2 is playing there, are also a big part of her life. Beyond quilting, Karen enjoys sharing her knowledge and expertise with a number of different organizations on a volunteer basis. Currently she serves on the board of the Modern Quilt Guild, the Calgary Folk Festival, and the Alberta Animal Rescue Crew.

My guest today is Chris Marchini. He is a quiltmaker and pattern designer who started making original quilts because he wasn't finding patterns to match his ideas. He started to share his processes, his tips, tricks and inspiration online and his sometimes darkly themed quilting world blossomed. From there, with his business Rose City Originals, Chris has gone viral on TikTok and Instagram, and it's no surprise because when you sink into a comfy chair and scroll through his content, it's just him the real deal, putting his own fresh twist on things and doing what he loves.

Today on the podcast I talk to organizers, volunteers, vendors, heritage actors and more at the Festival of Quilts in Heritage Park - Calgary. 

Now there are some really great reasons to consider attending this quilt show at heritage park next year. First your daily admission gets you everything except purchases in the stores. You can hop on the steam train, take a boat ride and visit the amusement park. It's a fun day for the whole family. Plus a quilt show, but get ready for next year because 2024 is the diamond Jubilee or 60th anniversary of heritage park. 

The 28th annual festival of quilts  will take part in the diamond Jubilee with some special displays, including one that features diamond quilts.

My guest today is Samantha Krebsbach. I first met Samantha at QuiltCon last year when I stopped her in her tracks to ask her about her quilted runners. They were purple patchwork with ombre laces and rainbow stitching and I wanted to take them home with me. When I started to chat with her, I realized that she is a pattern designer, she does professional edge to edge long arm services, and custom laser cutting. And she's also the inventor of a notion you just might have to add to your toolbox if you love English paper piecing.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! It's another great spooky themed episode with my guest Kimberly Peers-Moore. She is a quilt maker, a social media influencer, and the creator of Mr. Bones. He is a tiny skeleton who loves to sew, craft, and bake, and Kimberly has created a wonderful little world for us to follow along on his adventures.

In her TikTok profile, she writes, creating your daily dose of skeletonin, which is so cute. She humbly lurks behind the scenes of this Mr. Bones world, but she is exceptionally funny, and I can't wait to dive into a super fun Halloween episode.

To find Kimberlee and her adventures go to @Mr.Bones_Sews on TikTok, Instagram or Facebook.

My guest today is Zak Foster. He is a quilt maker who loves working with repurposed materials like old clothes, worn out linens, leftover shirting materials, and thrown out umbrellas even, and vintage tablecloths. He makes custom quilts and engages in some really cool ways with his quilting community online.

He's doing all kinds of fun stuff with friends and mentors, and I can't wait to get into this. It's going to be a conversation about using what you can use up to do what you love and so much more.

My guest today is Heidi Parkes. She is a quilter, textile artist, and yoga therapist. She is a sought after teacher and speaker on the quilting scene and has exhibited her work in art and textile museums across the US. I could hardly even write this little intro myself, because I loved every word in her bio on her website, so here's an excerpt from that;  "Often using specific textiles, like an heirloom tablecloth, bedsheet, or cloth teabag, Heidi adds subtle meaning and material memory from the start. Engaging in the worlds of art, quilts, mending, and social media, Heidi is an advocate for the domestic realms, slow stitching, and mindfulness." - Heidi Parkes 

That was so well written. I just had to use that in the intro. I hope you love this episode!

Gudrun Erla is a pattern designer, writer, and is famous for creating her stripology rulers, but something that really caught my eye was the explosion in growth of her community over the pandemic by just giving the quilters what they need. When we all felt trapped at home with lockdowns, Gudrun created events that brought us together, doing what we love. Today, her business, GE Designs, has grown into a one stop shop for everything quilting.

My guest today is Luke Haynes. You have heard mentions of him in past episodes with Zak, Heidi, and Joe the Quilter. I don't even have to use their last names, because if you've listened to those episodes, the stories they tell are now emblazoned in our hearts. But in this episode I'll be chatting with Luke Haynes.

He is known for an art practice in full view in the community, in the world. He puts his idea  of comfort and utility through quilting into the public domain and starts conversations with every stitch and with every installation. He has quilts in the permanent collections of museums across the USA. He has been featured as innovative, influential, and a must see in major press across the nation, and he has mounted dozens of solo exhibitions of quilts with a purpose - to open up the conversation.

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.

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.

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.
