    I have so enjoyed this podcast so much! Laughed with all of you including Biily. Lisa sounds like such a fun person. I have met and talked with Lisa’s husband several times at the Paducah Quilt Show. In fact my friends and I quilted In The Garden quilt that was hung at the Paducah show. Nick called and told Lisa about our quilt while he was standing with us! The quilt was finished by us because a friend was battling cancer and couldn’t even begin to work on it.

    Chelsea's comment about promoting and supporting personal and creative growth in others is a summary of most of the quilting community. You do inspire and support thousands and your comments are appreciated. Even Billy has commented on several occasions with ideas for support and growth. So, thank you for bringing up this point. And shout-out to Billy too.

    What a terrific podcast! I have noticed that the quilting community, though broad and diverse encompasses community. The sense of community and that quilting is a journey resonates with me. Having found quilting during the pandemic has been a godsend. Many other occupations or hobbies are based on competition. So grateful.

    Good Monday Ladies. Looking forward to hearing this podcast. After finding you and the quilting community via KZread last year I had a hankering to find a retreat spot relatively close to MI. It was exciting when I found Lisa was in Wisconsin. This month we’re in NC with daughter to help with grandchildren. There is a nearby quilt shop in a family garage that I love to visit when I’m in town. I don’t “need” anything but of course that’s not a reason to stay away. One of the things I picked up was Sherri’s Be My Neighbor pattern. 2022 is “Sew My Scraps” year. The pattern fits the plan.

    I loved listening to Lisa and how she got to where she is today! I'm also kicking myself because we were in Sister Bay, WI over the weekend and should have stopped in Larsen to see and shop the store. An extra hour or so added to the trip would have been so worth it. I guess I'll need to attend a retreat in the spring!

    Such an inspiring show today. 3 of my all time favorites all together. Thank you. I’m heading to Lisa ‘s california shop next week and am excited. Wisconsin is definitely on my list of places to go. Wait until I tell my husband he can fish. I do have a question for your next question & answer show. I consider myself a novice quilter and have had trouble getting myself motivated to finish my quilts. I have a few in various stages of completion, but I suppose my fear of the quilts not turning out “perfect” stops me in my tracks. Do you have a suggestion how to get out of my own way? Thank you 🌻
