Frances had a charming accent and soothing voice. I could listen to her all day! She shares her life, family, and her knowledge and love of quilts in a friendly realistic way, not a perfect quilter but someone who makes mistakes and then makes it work. Love her podcast!
Love that we share the hobby of quilting but Frances has made me look at quilting as more than the hobby that saves my sanity. Now I think more about the historical aspect of quilting. I can relate to a lot of her takes on life in general. So often I will think “amen, sister” when she shares something with her listeners. Witty & interesting!
Relistening to old shows and I’m chuckling and smiling while I listen to Frances recount things happening in her life. A feel-good, glad I stopped by to visit kind of podcast.
So glad I found your podcast, with your help. So I am listening to many episodes as I finish my latest quilt. And I have your FB quilt fiction page that I am following. But must say I love the podcast best of all. I get to hear your voice and feel like I am spending the afternoon with an dear friend. I went to your website so I could see your quilts as I listened to you discussing them. Love it all. But I have to look for copies of Margaret hoes Modern and Birds in the Air. Keep up the great work. You are top rated of all the podcast I listen to.
I enjoy her podcasts very much. I especially enjoyed this one. I love hearing about quilts, I loved hearing about the books she was reading. She’s someone I’d love to have for a friend. I am also enjoying her read the book about 1930’s town in Ohio. I look forward to each set of new chapters. I love Feedsack fabrics so I assume the fictional quilts in the story might have contained some of those. I bought one of her children’s books for my grandson. He lives in NC. It’s always fun to find an author who lives somewhat close. Authors are my heroes.
