Join me in Part TWO of a special episode featuring an interview with my freinds Judi and her daughter Ann, also known as Crafty Moose Quilts. Ann shares her journey from a tomboy childhood to discovering quilting during a period of illness and how that journey has brought her to her current quilting practice. Listen to the heartfelt stories behind her cherished quilts, the evolution of her T-shirt quilt business, and the important life lessons learned from her mother.
