We’re talking about the importance of understanding why you quilt, the therapeutic benefits of sewing, and ways to find inspiration when your creative tank is empty. I’ll also tell you all about a personal project inspired by a photograph of my grandmother, and offer practical tips for getting back to your quilting roots, including engaging with quilting communities and trying new techniques.
