What I’m teaching
I’ve been spending quite a bit of time evaluating my quilting practice to ensure that I’m focusing my time on projects that keep me engaged and fired up. This can be challenging, especially when life gets crazy busy.
This is why I wanted to take some time to share how I approach my creative practice and the thought process I went through in setting up my sewing routines.
With so much inspiration out there, it can feel super overwhelming, and you start to feel like you’re not making enough. Or is that just me?!
In the Are You a Fast or Slow Quilter? How to Set a Creative Rhythm lecture I’m pulling back the curtains and sharing how I’ve been feeling in my quilting practice, the decisions I’m making to ensure I’m harnessing my creative fire and making what gets me excited and keeps me engaged. I started quilting because it brought me joy and I don’t want to ever lose sight of that.
I’m also sharing a handy download to help guide you through questions to help you establish your own creative rhythm!

Can I get access to the recordings?
Yes! The lecture recordings will be available through May 9, 2025, at midnight Pacific time, and if you’d like lifetime access, then you can upgrade to the VIP Pass. Some extra goodies that come with the pass, including exclusive discounts.
The Quilters Life Summit is so powerful. It’s a dedicated time and space to focus on your quilting. No distractions. No excuses. Just you, your creativity, and a community of quilters cheering you on.
The event kicks off at 11:45 EDT today with the Summit Introduction/Perfectionist Recovery: How to Break Free from “All or Nothing” Thinking.
Hope to see you there 😊
