Customer Reviews
Authentic & knowledgeable
I’m loving the show & the hosts. The episodes are approachable, entertaining, and informative. I find myself talking back to them like they can hear me! 😂
Sew Chatty
I was happy to see there was an episode with Lauren Mormino. She is one of my favorite makers. However the one host talked so much I felt like the episode was about her.
Fun & Fresh
I absolutely love listening to Bethany and Ashley- you both are just so relatable and make me feel like I am capable of learning anything with sewing. I’ve learned so much from you and your guests and even bought a serger to move from quilting to garment sewing! I look forward to every Tuesday with you all and can’t wait to learn more tips, tricks, and new things
