The Quilter on Fire Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

My guests today are from C&T Publishing. which is a midsize, family-run, independent publisher of quilting, sewing, and crafting books based in Concord, CA. It was founded in 1983 by Carolie and Tom Hensley, owners of The Cotton Patch, a quilting and sewing supplies store in Lafayette, CA.

This week (August 2024) we lost a beautiful, creative voice in our industry - Carole Lyles Shaw. She was a bright light in the quilting world and a very much loved member of our community. Carole was a very talented quilter and teacher but also one of those really positive good friends to so many of us. As I processed the news of her passing the day before her podcast episode was supposed to air last week I just took a pause. It was hard to accept after having interviewed her with so much joy just a few weeks ago, but I’ve realized that she put in a lot of work to prepare for her episode and it would be good to honour her memory and share her voice and her story with you. My heartfelt condolences to her family and friends.

My guest today is Carolina Moore. She is a talented quilt pattern designer, notion inventor and popular YouTuber. This is a follow up episode since I've had her on the show before and she has done so many new things from blinging out an Oliso iron and a Babylock machine to inventing a new ruler and creating some AccuQuilt dies plus so much more!

There is so much to learn about quilt history, curation of shows, care of quilts and preservation. And I love the topics and guests that the six know-it-alls have on their show.

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.

Her quirky demeanour takes a front stage in her content again and again. She has been a TV host, a writer, magazine editor, a lecturer, and has a passion for quilt history research.
