<span style="color: #585858; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 1.4;">Inspired by the quilting stories of the women on her husband's side of the family, </span><span style="line-height: 22px;">Elizabeth</span><span style="line-height: 1.4;"> started quilting for her own little ones in 2009. Her very </span><span style="line-height: 22px;">first</span><span style="line-height: 1.4;"> quilt was an ambitious queen sized quilt for her tiny son. She is a lovely example of a quilt professional who has fallen head over heels for </span><span style="line-height: 22px;">long arm quilting and over the past 6 years she has created a storm of activity in her studio learning lessons along the way. She'll be sharing her story and a few wonderful tips along the way. </span></span></div>

Since 2008 she has been designing quilt, hand embroidery and softie patterns under the name of Chatterbox Quilts in Calgary, AB. Kim enjoys creating Youtube videos where she shares information about quilting, book reviews and her love of vintage sewing machines, supervised by her two furry assistants, Charlie and Teeka. Kim owns too much fabric and believes that chocolate is an essential quilting tool. Her designs have been featured in such publications as Quilter's Connection magazine, Irish Quilting magazine, and the Bustle &amp Sew zine. Kim's favourite quilting technique is fusible web appliqué, which she is excited to share in her <a href="http://www.curious.com/">Curious.com</a> online course, Essential Guide to Fusible Web Appliqué. </span></span><br />

<span style="color: #585858; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.4;">Happy Tuesday everyone! Join me this week on Canadian Quilt Talk for my 72nd episode as I interview fibre artist Jaynie Himsl. We'll talk about surrounding yourself with incredible mentors and touch on the topic of deciding what you want to do and then asking for it! </span><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Jayne</span><span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.4;"> put her dreams out there and now she's mounting her first little solo fibre art show. As a member of the Fibre Art Network she has been encouraged, motivated and inspired by an incredible group of fine artists. She's gone from being struck by the notion that she could use her skill for sewing to create fine art when she saw her first fibre art show all the way to mounting her first solo exhibition. </span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px;">My favourite part about a show this size is the incredible display of quilts and it is just so much fun to meet up with friends from all over Canada and take part in the festivities. This year I'll be taking my Part III Quilt Judge Certification test so wish me luck! I'll also be doing on the spot interviews, book signings, checking out the vendors, events, dinners and more. So this week on Episode # 71 of the CQT Podcast I'll start things off a few months early by giving you a preview of what to expect for this year's CQA/ACC 2015 National Juried Show. </span></div>

Shannon is a Canadian sewing and quilting blogger living in Montreal. She’s been sewing since she was a child, but started blogging her sewing and modern quilting projects at <a href="http://www.finishedgarment.ca/" target="_blank">The Finished Garment</a> almost two years ago. In real life, she runs a web design company called Cafe Noir Designs, advocates for a more socially just web, and is the mother of four kids eight and under. I came across her BIG LISTS online which are a fabulous resource for quilters and I wanted to share them with you. </div>

When I was first invited to host a quilt cruise I had no idea how I was going to provide sewing machines for up to 60 quilters. After a little research and some very polite inquiries, Janome Canada has graciously sponsored 30+ machines for this cruise. And the classes are so fun and carefree that you can share a machine with your room mate, so we can host up to 60 quilters. This is going to be the cruise of a lifetime! </span></span></span><br />
