Hey quilting enthusiasts! In this cozy meetup, our fabulous quilters shared a tapestry of personal updatesthat had us all feeling the warm fuzzies. Rochelle dished about her Christmas quilting adventures at a recent retreat and Leslie talked about how her new Burn Boot Camp routine with Jon has been totally transforming her energy levels. The group celebrated Lina's Spanish quilt book publication while offering support through her recent job situation, showcasing how this amazing quilting community lifts each other up during life's ups and downs. Rochelle shared heartwarming stories about her grandson Peyton's birthday in Hawaii, sparking an important conversation about early intervention and lifelong support for neurodivergent individuals.
The chat then stitched together vacation tales of beach adventures and the hilarious challenges of traveling with kiddos and all their sandy toys. Our quilters got down to business discussing their colorful shirt inventory and the not-so-fun rising shipping costs (thanks, postal service!). Leslie had us reaching for tissues when she shared the anonymous quilt kit donation from a podcast listener and her joy in gifting a sewing machine to young quilter due to the kindness of Lina. The group wrapped things up with some serious Pro Stitcher technique talk, sharing their quilting wins and challenges, before ending with a heartwarming lottery story that proved friendship and promises are the real jackpot. How's that for a patchwork of conversations?

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
