Meet Lacie Messerly of Messy Quilts & The Grateful Thread podcast! - Ep. 102

Lacie Messerly is a quilter and podcaster. Her show motto "You can sit with us" is a call to welcome all quilters who feel like they're not welcomed or invited in some quilty spaces. Lacie started with other hobbies, such as cross-stitching, scrapbooking, and painting wooden signs. As a stay-at-home mom, Lacie was looking for something new to do, so reached out to her mom for help learning how to quilt. After rage quitting for a few years, Lacie picked it back up again and started sharing her makes in 2015 on Instagram. With some experience under her belt with making some t-shirt quilts and the infamous "Lips" quilt, Lacie formed Messy Quilts in 2022. In 2023, Ashelyn, Lacie's sister-in-law invited her to create a podcast to talk about quilting. The Grateful Thread podcast was launched with quick growth and a devoted following of "Thread Heads". Lacie loves quilting and being able to share her gift with others, but also wants to be sure she's balancing her business and her personal artistic endeavors.
