Taiga is delightful and her gradients are Amazing! And now I know how to pronounce her name as well. I have not heard many say "I don't really like children".... I have 2 kids and love them dearly, like she said they are my heart...but also totally share her sentiment though! I'm so glad to hear someone else say it out loud!!!! Just because I am a mom doesn't mean I love ALL kids and that's OK!

Absolutely Beautiful!!! Would Love to Learn how to make a quilted coat

“Uh oh” - the sound of a new hobby acquired! I also discovered the joy of quilting as someone with a background of loving fabric and color by sewing garments with my mom as a little girl. I also find it challenging to find time to sew with a young kiddo and one on the way.

So nice to hear about your big trip! I agree I would've left too...youd have never forgiven yourself if something happened to your babycat. Congrats on being the sole owner of Sweet Pea! Lots of big news!

Good show as always, nice to meet The Bear Quilter!

Great interview as always! Checking out her podcast as well, looking forward to hearing your episode!

Love this!!

I love Rachel and Craftymonkies! The platform is incredible and opened the quilting world to me! Every class and teacher I have taken a class from have been fantastic with lots of learning! I love the huge range of creativity! Amanda, I found your podcast through Rachel and I have been slowly watching the episodes! Thanks Amanda and Rachel for a brilliant interview!

Good morning from Arizona! I love your interviews! I’ve been going back and watching some of your older videos!❤

Good morning from Wyoming

Hi Amanda, glad you're back, I would have done the same thing for my cats, what an adventure, I'm going to have to check out the sweater quilt,sounds like fun, I've made my own clothes for 50+ years and still can't make pants that fit properly, yes moving is very stressful, wow, your commute to work is what 2 minutes,lol bye

Becca is awesome!

Ball tip!

Karlee Brenda Barbara is so talented and so hilarious! Love listening to her. Another great episode ❤

Great interview. My mother died about a year ago, and although she couldn’t remember who I was by the time she died, she liked seeing the projects I was sewing. I took up slow stitching several months ago, and almost every day I wish I could show her what I was making because she and her mother (my grandma) were the people who first taught me to embroider. You and your guest were right about saving sewing items that belonged to your loved ones. Recently I used my grandma’s embroidery hoop - the same one I learned on over 60 years ago. Hope you enjoy your trip.

Bravo!!! Once again your quilty conversation turned to a difficult subject...death! And I was 100% here for it and everything that was said was so helpful & good and NEEDS to be discussed more! Great guest & conversation as always! Your ability to talk about hard things is a GIFT❤

Fabulous episode! I could listen to you two ladies talk all day! Such good reminders of the struggles we all have and also...good suggestions of how to overcome them! This show is important and it helps others and never let any negativity get you down! We love you❤

Great intro to your podcast. I came from a link that Jenni put on the Modern Quilter’s Guild. Thanks again.

I really enjoyed this interview and getting to know Amy. I dream of doing a Camino someday, too.

💪😁I think when we are hyper focused on hate or criticism, it is from our own insecurities. and instead of pushing that on others and creating boundaries; We need to look inside and find out why that bothers us.

I love the natural winding path these chats take - quilting to quiltcon to internet hate to authenticity to bag making to patterns to sick kids to guilds and on and on. I love it!!

I like your topic. I was thinking in your library in your town I wonder if that will be harder than the huge quilt show where most of the people don’t know you. I happy that you can be so open about your own hard experiences. This is coming from my caring heart.

Another great podcast ❤

so loved this topic, thank you for all you do :)

Thank you this is helpful in so many ways. It has pointed out things I have forgotten to consider in my own work.

I think I've found my tribe.

I only quilt for a select few. I truly don’t know how to charge correctly.

Too much cussing for quilt community

Watching the replay. Great discussion, especially about the long arm and the why's we quilt. Terrific job!

I love watching Becca’s podcasts on Friday nights. Becca is so fun and lively ❤❤

I’m a newbie even though I have had my machines for a few years. Life happens now I’m waiting for my shoulder and arm to heal so I can explore this quilting craft more. I’ve done a few quilts but have so much to learn. Your podcasts are interesting.

Great podcast, thanks! Nice discussion about trying new things. It makes me sad when people say they're intimidated by/afraid to try something new. For (lucky) me if it looks interesting, I'll try it.

I have just discovered your video when you interviewed Ian Garland and now SewBecca. why do you have to curse at all of your podcasts? I am not a prude but this is very annoying and disrespectful. you lost me at FUCK

I absolutely loved having a little chat with you - and I can't wait to host you on my livestream this Friday! <3

Thanks for this interview with Becca , and the others who you’ve interviewed. I found you through your podcast with Ian and showed you to my wife who also follows them. We enjoy your style of interviews, please keep up your style it’s very interesting and refreshing to listen and watch.

If you are wearing a mask, 38:10 how does anybody know if you are the contagious one?

HI!

Superb discussion! Thank you so much to both of you!

Thank you so much for having me on the podcast! I enjoyed getting to know you and chat. 🫶

We inquired into shipping goods, auto. via shipping containers. They have different size containers. The rates were very reasonable. Of cource 1:1 quilt would bot work, but you might find numerous people who want to ship quilts, blankerts, handmade jewelry computers hot water heaters, etc...

You’ve spoken directly to me about community. You’re right, community is so very vital to people. My brother did not survive Covid. He wasn’t sick with Covid. He lived in a resort town 300 miles from me. All of his social interactions took place at his local dives. Everybody knew each other in town. All the locals knew each other. And when Covid closed the restaurants, the bars, the wineries and cigar clubs, he was so lonely. I called and tried to invite myself up to visit for a weekend, but he said, no and had a variety of excuses. In retrospect I should have just showed up on his doorstep, but 5 hours of driving one way is daunting if you’re unsure of your welcome. And I’m ashamed to say I didn’t hear the lonliness in his excuses. Thank you for letting me say all that.

Thank you for doing this show! 😊Suicide is such a hard thing to deal with the aftermath of after losing my dad and my husband to suicide. It’s like letting my family and my friends know that I love them is extremely important. I’m sorry for your loss Ian. after I lost them, I started quilting and it is brought joy back into my life. I’m glad that I have Jesus to guide my path.❤

Wonderful interview! So glad I found this channel 😊
