Jessica and her sister Jamie are the creators of SewTites® magnetic sewing pins. One day in early 2017, while working on a bag, Jamie decided to use magnets to "pin" the leather pocket in place while piecing. She called up Jessica and told her about the simple and functional idea. Jessica, who is a career marketer and graphic designer, replied "That has to be a problem other people have – we should market it!" The idea went by the wayside, however, for about a year while we were working on another business. But Sew Tites were too good an idea! They created prototypes to use as a giveaway in their 2018 QuiltCon booth. The response was overwhelming. Within a few months, SewTites were available through distributors and in local quilt shops, and today are availabe in the US, Canada, Australia, Europe, and worldwide through SewTites.com Their mission is to empower themselves and others to "Live Magnetically" – as fully and intentionally as possible.

Debbie is a home economics teacher by profession. She began quilting in 1986 after taking a Continuing Education class. Growing up she was enthralled with her grandmothers and their abilities as seamstresses. When fitting clothes took the fun out of the sewing, she turned to quilting. It was a great way to collect fabric and continue using her sewing skills. Her quilting passion grew when she moved to Egypt. With her friends, she began a quilting group that was later named “Quilters in deNile” . Now a resident of Massachusetts, Debbie continues in many quilting endeavors. She designed the tool “Brilliant Bindings”. In 1999, a dear quilting friend Lil Griffin showed her a binding ending technique so the seam was the same as all others in a continuous binding. She made her own template to simplify the process and used it to teach others for years. She was encouraged to put the idea into form and had Brilliant Bindings made in 2007. Her Brilliant Bindings tool shape, a trapezoid, proved to be a great jumping off point for many unique quilt patterns. Any of her patterns with " Brilliant " or " Tool " in the title uses Brilliant Bindings as a cutting template to make the quilt. In 2017, Hex-a-ma-jig was created. A 3 1/2" half hexie shape template with more lines for more cutting options - Half Hexie, Full Hexie, Partial Hexie. The Hexie family grew in 2018 with Hex-a-ma-jig Jr. for 2 1/2" strips and Hex-a-Mini for 2" strips was introduced in 2021. Her self-published books include: Construction and Production – Making and Binding a Quilt on a Longarm, Midarm or Shortarm Chenille Made Easy on a Longarm Hexie Speak - Say it with Hexies A Design Workbook…

Swan Sheridan lives in Tucson, Arizona with her super hero husband and teenaged daughter. She has a passion for all things textile and has dabbled in everything from spinning wool to dying fiber. In 2001, Swan made her first quilt in preparation for the birth of her first nephew. In the interests of covering a mistake in that first project, she used a little applique at the center of the project and perhaps it was that combination of piecing and applique that acted as a catalyst. Quilting has been the preferred obsession, ever after. Swan began designing her own quilts from the beginning, making patterns on freezer paper and working to figure out her pieces from scratch. In 2009, with her daughter in preschool, Swan began to refine her applique skills and set out to push her skills to the limit, but always with unique designs. Soon after she took a job with Bella Quiltworks in Tucson, offering her the opportunity to be immersed in the quilting world in a whole new way. Swan began producing patterns for sale in early 2013 and regularly exhibits her work in local and national shows. She teaches in Tucson and around the country, offering classes in appliqué, color, machine quilting, painting, and decorative stitches. On any given day, you can find this quilt artist half buried in fabric, brandishing her needle and thread, and otherwise surrounded by implements of creativity.…
In this interview with Daniela Stout, we talk about her Strip Tube Ruler (and Junior!) and how they came to be. Daniela Stout is the owner of Cozy Quilt Shop in El Cajon, which opened in 2003. Daniela was a marketing manager for a book distributor, and dreamed of running her own business with her husband Rick. Rick had the business know-how and Daniela had a passion for quilting. After many months of dreaming, planning, and exploring, they took the leap. And have loved it ever since. Why “Cozy Quilt Shop”? Their kids call a blanket of any kind a “cozy.” When they are cold, or when they are sick, they ask for a cozy. It's a name that means home and comfort to the Stout family. And that’s just what they wanted for their new store. As the business grew, they launched a line of patterns called Cozy Quilt Designs . They also launched the greatest “of-the-month” program called "Strip Club!" Each month they offer a coordinated bundle of about 40 – 2 ½” strips and a new original pattern to help put the strips to use. They have a lecture once a month to debut the new sample and present the pattern. It's a lot of fun for everyone and everyone is welcome. While they put this event on hold because of stupid covid and stupid cancer, it’s back and you should absolutey go and join the fun! As you may have gathered from the “stupid cancer” comment above, Daniela was diagnosed with cancer. It was on her 49th birthday, November 10, 2020. Ovarian cancer. Stage 3b. It was a bumpy path with some very low lows. As with all cancer journeys, it was a frightening time. But we are happy to report things took a turn for the better, and we are expecting the words "remission" and "maintenance" to overshadow chemotherapy and infusion. Daniela is truly an inspiration to many quilters, and quilt shop owners... we're so happy to share her story this week on the podcast!…
