Welcome back readers and listeners! What can I say other than I've missed everyone and I'm ready to give podcasting another go. I've given the Shorty's Sutures Podcast a lot of thought over the past several months and I'm excited to launch this newest episode. A lot has happened in the past two years!
I'm planning on simplifying things by not worrying about episode categories, titles, seques with music and the like. I'm hoping it will feel just like having a regular conversation with me.
Currently working on:
- Kastellet Sweater
- Potholders for Christmas Gifts
- Quilts for Nieces Cara & Chloe (the Princess Crown Blocks are made from instructions by Dana Bolyard from Old Red Barn Co and her Imagine Quilts book. The Gemology Block was free when I found it years ago but can be purchased here.)

Thanksgiving is coming up and I'm going to do my best to eat Paleo-friendly desserts, but a pumpkin or pecan pie may make its way into my belly. What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish or treat? Are you for or against decorating early for Christmas and do you have any holiday stitching plans?
I'd love to hear what you're doing to keep your hands stitchin'! Thanks so much for listening ❤️
