About this episode
Welcome back, everyone! We're diving in and this one was a festive mix of holiday chaos and serious stitching insights! The girls kicked things off with a wild discussion about the Elf on the Shelf and that age-old dilemma of needing last-minute gifts, which led to a brilliant hack for turning Moda quilt panels into personalized pillows—genius! They also got real about the ups and downs of long-arm quilting, including an epic tale of accidentally quilting a bobbin into a custom project, proving even the pros have "oops" moments. But hey, managing mistakes and mastering tension with a new gauge just means more lessons learned! But the fun didn't stop there! The group zipped right into planning mode, catching up on the latest buzz about QuiltCon—fire and all—and sharing exciting details about upcoming retreats, including one in sunny Hawaii. Also get the scoop on some heartwarming personal stories, like the quilter who unexpectedly picked up three new custom jobs after attending an hour-and-a-half-long San Antonio wedding! It's not all business, though; they wrapped up with cozy talks about family holiday traditions and the highly anticipated unboxing of a charcuterie-themed quilt board!
