I'm so excited to chat today with Amy Butler. She is known worldwide for her colour and design as a multi passionate creator. You can spot her designs in a second. I think her aesthetic is best described as comfort, in my mind anyway, because every photo on her website evokes a sense of world travel, but also the joy and comfort of home.She has accomplished so much in her career, but always seems to follow her own unique path. And it's been brilliant to watch the journey of success through recurring self discovery. She's not afraid to embrace change. This episode is one of those ones that left me wanting to ask a hundred more questions.Amy Butler's WEBSITE -  https://www.amybutlerdesign.com/Quilter on Fire Website - https://quilteronfire.com/Square One Textile Art WorkshopLink to Brandy’s email list Kristy’s Quilt Picture BookQuilter on Fire PatternsFree Quilter on Fire Holiday Table Runner VIDEO Call Judy at Opulent Quilt Journeys at 1-877-235-3767 or go to the Opulent Quilt Journeys Website.  Support the showThank you for listening to the Quilter on Fire Podcast.

My guest today is Angie Knowles. She is a mixed media textile artist and online educator. I have been her friend for years online and had the chance to meet her in person finally at QuiltCon 2022. She is really into experimentation and pushing the boundaries of a process or technique. She takes it further than she thinks she can and then turns around and shares it with her audience. Her first online course is a series of classes on learning to design for your cutting machine. And her latest course is a wonderful exploration of rust dyeing fabric, which I absolutely love doing myself and I'm excited to explore the technique on the podcast.Angie Knowles' website: https://angieeknowles.com/Angie's social media: https://www.instagram.com/angieknowles/Angie's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/AngieEKnowlesTextileArtistTODAY'S SHOW SPONSORS:Sew Yeah Quilting  (affiliate link to support this podcast)Support the showThank you for listening to the Quilter on Fire Podcast.

Gudrun Erla is a pattern designer, writer, and is famous for creating her stripology rulers, but something that really caught my eye was the explosion in growth of her community over the pandemic by just giving the quilters what they need. When we all felt trapped at home with lockdowns, Gudrun created events that brought us together, doing what we love. Today, her business, GE Designs, has grown into a one stop shop for everything quilting.GE Designs Website: https://gequiltdesigns.com/TODAY'S SHOW SPONSORS:Sew Yeah Quilting  (affiliate link to support this podcast)Angels Sewing and Quilting (20% off fabric, notions, and accessories with the code quilteronfire)Support the showSupport the showThank you for listening to the Quilter on Fire Podcast.
