Great interview ❤

WOW! Congratulations! Listening to the interview gives me hope and inspiration that maybe one day I could make something this beautiful, as my grandson says, ‘an heirloom’. LOL. I will happy if I manage one of those beautiful birds. Love, love, love what you have done!

I appreciate Pat explaining how she uses the fusible webbing. I feel like I could try applique now... maybe not so intricate though!

This quilter had a wealth of information! Her quilt is amazing to be sewn on a domestic. 😮 I just rolled my eyes when the person to the right was taking pictures...🙄 Bonnie might have asked how much fusible she used 😊. Would have loved to see more of the quilt.💗
