Inappropriate Quilters

Get ready for a fantastic deep dive into the world of modern quilting! We sat down with the incredibly talented Matt Harr, a quilt designer and instructor, who gave us the lowdown on his upcoming fabric line with QT Fabrics, set for a hot July release. Matt also spilled the beans on a massive project: organizing the first official quilt fashion show at QuiltCon in Raleigh next month! Plus, we heard all about his popular quilt coat teaching classes in Oklahoma, his work as president of the Albuquerque Modern Quilt Guild, and his efforts to make his popular quilt coat pattern more widely available. This episode is packed with exciting project updates and major event planning—you won't want to miss Matt's vision for the future of quilt fashion.

But the fun didn't stop there! The group dove into some great gear talk, covering essential sewing tools like sergers and Juki machines, and even had a laugh over a hilarious "Grandchildren's School Trip Ordeal" shared by Leslie, of course. We heard heartfelt personal stories about sewing journeys and family experiences, adding a wonderful personal touch to the conversation, and discovered that Matt is a trained tap dancer! On the planning front, they discussed the upcoming D-Stash event in Albuquerque and the Oklahoma group’s big presence at QuiltCon. We wrapped up with a vital reminder about prioritizing rest and self-care in your creative life—a perfect message to send you off on your next project!
