    Honestly, this is by far my FAVORITE podcast! I watch all of you on RUclips. Love being able to see your interactions. Thanks for all you do! Chelsi, I was with you on the no way I am going to sew! Lol I want you to know you inspired me to quilt my very first top I ever made. So many mistakes but, it deserves to be used. Sheri, you are an excellent instructor and designer and have taught me so much! Billy, you have done an amazing job with the podcast! I will never forget you getting a hole in one!

    Doug Leko’s mini folded corner ruler is the absolute best. To not have to draw those lines is the best thing…..and the accuracy!!

    True confession! I was very disappointed when your podcast started combining with video. I loved listening to the podcast and felt torn to transfer to video so that I could see the quilts. Now I do both! It’s like getting the best of both worlds. Thank you for all you do to inspire me and others.

    Memories is delightful. And as you are sharing how grateful you all are for us viewers, I'm sure I'm not alone on this observation but for me, your gratefulness and love emanates forth from your videos.
    I became aware of this a few years ago. That in a nutshell my biggest draw to watching. Oh yes, adding honesty and integrity. My belief is that people can 'see' the real thing from maybe what may be just 'the appearance of'. So that's my gratitude back to the three of you with the understanding family behind the scenes is also apart of the 'whole'.

      I’d love to have the 100th episode on Christmas Day too….or maybe early on Christmas Eve!

    I always love Billy’s input. I had to laugh about the shorts! I made so many of those in the 80’s for my son! He loved them! The Christmas episode should be released on Christmas. It’s not live and so many people are lonely.

    The Simple Folded Corners ruler has been a game changer for me this year. It is absolutely my most favorite new tool. Great suggestion!

    I'll jump on the crying train with you, Chelsi!! I'm a bawl baby anyway, so really enjoyed all of your touching "gratefuls" 💗💗 You all do such a great job presenting, Billy editing, etc! Keep up the great work & yep, get cake for the 100th episode 😋😋

    Sewing, I remember when my daughter had her first baby in 2000 and came to me and said "Mom the weather is getting colder and we don't have the money to buy winter clothes for Sydney. I'm taking you to the fabric store to buy material" (she didn't mean she was buying the fabric!) I bought the fabric and made Jackets, pants, and hats and a few dresses for a 5 month old baby girl. Joy of my life. About 12 outfits. I continued to sew for her through kindergarden including halloween costumes. Then came granddaughter 2, then 3.

    You can also use cinnamon sticks for the stems for your pumpkins.

  • @arlenehelms1293
    @arlenehelms1293 Год назад +34

    Just my 2 cents...I don't think you should wait to release the Christmas podcast. Here's why... Those of us who are busy that day may not listen/watch on that day BUT those who are alone or lonely on the holiday might feel like they are spending a day with a friend and find comfort in the podcast or those who don't celebrate Christmas shouldn't have to wait. It's not something that is watched live anyway so I don't understand why you would delay it. Maybe there's a behind the scenes reason 🤷‍♀️

  • @michaellubenau7495

    Watching this weeks later but want to comment on this podcast. There are so many areas of your talk that I can relate to. Especially with you Sherri. As a mother of 4, 2 girls and 2 boys, I also did garment sewing for my kids when they were young. And I did it to save money too. I also said that I didn't understand buying fabric, cutting it up and sewing it back together. I am now an advid quilter. I Love Quilting. I also love your podcast!!

  • @melaniekey-k4o

    We are so thankful for you guys. Billy it is so nice to see you get involved with this podcast and working so well with your sister and mom. Chel, cherish these times with your mom. And Sheri well I know you are so full of joy to spend time with your son and daughter. I love watching y’all

  • @janelicata5328

  • @pampeterson3092
    @pampeterson3092 Год назад

    Ding, ding, ding,….. I love the idea of making a gift bag to use in the place of a stocking. I do stocking stuffers for my adult kids, their spouses and grandkids, and now often we aren’t at our house to celebrate the holiday. Unfortunately things fall out of stockings during transport to wherever we are celebrating. I think I will make these for my family next year and I can personalize each one and use it year after year like a stocking. Great gift ideas. I am thankful for your podcast and videos, as I have learned a lot. Hope you all enjoy festivities of this Christmas Season.

    @lindacasias8800 Год назад

    You have no idea how you have made such an impact on my quilting journey over the last few years. I wasn't proud of my quilting back in 2019. I had only been sewing/quilting for a few years and had zero confidence skills. I truly didn't know what I was doing but I knew that I liked the process - picking fabrics. coordinating colors, finding doable patterns, and of course having something I could curl up under when I watched RUclips videos. Then I found your channel. You are both so genuine and relatable. I enjoy every episode and learn something new from you each time. I love your organization style and your book recommendations have got me back into reaching too. And I especially love your fabric collections and patterns.
    WOW! Soon you will complete 100 episodes! Thank you Sherri, Chelsi, and Billy for the encouragement, inspiration and awesome podcasts.

  • @kabjhill

    Thank you, Billy, for helping to develop the podcast into a more seamless presentation. I am hungry to learn, but I have quit watching some online teachers because of their repeated speech patterns and filled pauses. It is difficult to coach family (and still get along) but you're doing a great job!

  • @jayneterry8701

    Another great podcast. But only one idea for a gift that I'm surprised Sherri didn't add is papers for Grandmother's Flower Garden blocks. I have a pack of 1" papers on my wish list. 😉 BTW, the best gift I can receive is to see appreciation on the face of a quilt recipient, knowing that I chose the right fabrics, colors and pattern for them.

    I think it would be great if you did air the podcast on Christmas Day. Not everyone has family or something to do on Christmas and that would be a great gift from you guys on Christmas morning. Everyone else can watch it later. Happy Holidays!

    Love the pics of young Billy in the shorts Sherri made him. Brought back memories of when I used to make my girls boxer shorts in the 90s when they were popular. Since they wore uniforms to school, they were perfect cover ups to wear underneath.

I have tried but must be doing something wrong. if you could take us from start to end and show your whole process on how it saves time.

    I saw the jumbo yo-yo maker and remembered the Terry Atkinson yo-yo quilt in Better Homes and Gardens I made. I would be interested in seeing how to make pumpkins. I missed the pin cushion, but would be find red yo-yo tomatoes fun. I’ll keeps my eyes open for when you make little pumpkins. Thanks!

I’m going to ask Santa for a quilting theme socking for Christmas what a fantastic idea, two more things I’d like would be glue and pkg. of 3 Lindt dark chocolate 😊. Thanks for making Monday morning brighter. 👍❤️😊

    @joycebaker3798 Год назад

    The planets have truly aligned!! 100th episode, last episode of 2023, Christmas Day!!! OK Boxing Day. Sherri - making clothing is cutting up fabric and sewing the pieces back together. Why do people feel the need to say that about quilting (in a bad way). Making furniture is cutting up wood and putting it back together. Cooking is cutting up meats, vegetables etc and putting it all together....
    Chelsi - I cracked up when you interjected - who would have ever thought your mom would need her English degree..... so funny.

  • @cathinuferrous2336
    @cathinuferrous2336 Год назад

    Really FUN show 🎉
    loved the Christmas sewing machine surprise🎉
    if you guys are going to be together at Christmas it’d sure be fun if you guys did a live on the 26th to celebrate your 100 episode
    But… that might be to much😮 for you guys… Christmas does get busy… just throwing the thought out there 😅

  • @debbiebrugman4543
