About this episode
In this episode, Sherri welcomes Amy Smart from Diary of a Quilter to the show. Amy is a quilter, a blogger, a fabric designer, a pattern designer, and an author. Today, Amy shares how she first started quilting and continued pursuing her new hobby as a young mother with young children. Sherri and Amy also discuss their early blogging days and how they found each other online. Amy has a new fabric collection, Albion from Riley Blake Fabrics, that will be available to the public next month. She talks about her process of designing fabric and what specifically inspired her newest collection. Lastly, Sherri and Amy share some "bucket list" projects they both hope to complete soon.
