What Some of My Quilty Friends are Doing…

It’s fun to support my fellow quilty friends in the industry, especially when they do amazing things I wouldn’t even dream of. So today I want to tell you about 2 fun things to check out!

Thing 1: I Love Notions Podcast

The first is from my friend Carolina Moore of Always Expect Moore. She’s “multi-craftsual” which means she dabbles in lots of fun crafty things in addition to quilting. Her latest venture is a podcast called “I love Notions” in which she chats with sewing industry peeps about their fave notions.

I was honored when she invited me to be a guest on her inaugural season. Of course we chatted about my quilting notions and sewing table in addition to some fun quilty chit chat. She has a great radio voice and is really interesting to listen to. I’ve been binge-listening episodes while I sew and I’m sure you’ll enjoy them too!

Thing 2: A Quilting Cozy Mystery & Giveaway!

The second thing is that another friend of mine, Kathryn Mykel, has released the 5th book in her Quilting Cozy Mystery series. It’s called “Stitching Concerns” and she include a cameo of one of my quilts in the volume, so that was fun!! If you love mystery novels AND you love quilting, this will be right up your alley!!

Click here to get the full Quilting Cozy Mystery series.

Kathryn has generously offered a giveaway of her books. One lucky winner will get access to the Kindle ebook #5 – the latest in the series. Another winner will get books 1-3 shown above. To enter leave a comment letting me know if you’ve ever read quilt fiction before, and if so, feel free to leave a recommendation. I’m always looking for more fun things to read! I’ll leave the giveaway open through the end of September 2023 and then Kathryn will notify the winners via email.

Happy listening and reading!!

    I’m always glad to discover a new mystery series, and quilty mysteries are a special delight. I really enjoyed Clare O’Donohue’s “Someday Quilts” series. I still miss Earlene Fowler’s series and have a secret, fond hope that she’ll pop up with another title someday…

    I love fiction especially related to Christmas. But I also love a good story and Pamela Kelly does excellent stories. Try reading her Nantucket series related to Plum Beach Cove.

    Yes, I have read quilt fiction. My favorite author is Earlene Fowler. All of her book titles are names of quilt blocks. I would enjoy reading Kathryn Mykel’s series.

    I have read some of Chivranni’s books and some other miscellaneous quilt fiction. Life has provided some challenges in the last few years which has limited my reading and quilting time. I enjoy reading your blog and books to keep me inspired for quilting.

    I have read some of Chivranni’s books and some other miscellaneous quilt fiction. My life has limited quilting and reading time. Wanting to do more of both but not sure when. Enjoy reading your posts for inspiration and keeping my interest in my passion of quilting.

    Yes, I read quilt fiction but can’t remember any right now. I also read knitting mysteries such as ones from Sally Goldenbaum.
