Meet the Voices Behind the Mic – Introducing the Quilting Central Podcast

In the debut episode of the Quilting Central Podcast, listeners are warmly welcomed into the quilting journeys of three passionate hosts: Julie, Angie, and Cathy. Broadcasting from three corners of the country—Texas, Wisconsin, and Nebraska—these women bring unique perspectives and shared devotion to the craft that binds them: quilting.

Julie of Two Chicks Quilting began by teaching beginners and has built a full-service shop in Ganado, Texas. Her love for machine piecing and helping newcomers makes her a comforting guide for anyone picking up a needle for the first time.

Angie, running The Quilting Connection in Wisconsin, brings tech know-how and longarm expertise to the table. With a quilting lineage going back to her mother and grandmother, she now operates in two cities—Elkhorn and Appleton—pushing the boundaries of what longarm quilting can be.

Cathy, co-owner of Fabric Bash in Omaha, Nebraska, discovered quilting as a therapeutic outlet while raising children. Her creative approach to free motion quilting and co-leadership with her son-in-law demonstrates the vibrant family energy woven into the fabric of their shop.

But Quilting Central is more than just the sum of its hosts. This podcast is built as a resource, a retreat, and a rallying point for quilters everywhere, especially those without access to local guilds or shops. With educational content, heartfelt stories, and laughter along the way, the podcast creates a digital quilting bee that feels both personal and inclusive.

Listeners can expect upcoming episodes to be rich in machine tips, quilting techniques, and tales of how passion became a profession. One exciting teaser: a virtual longarm quilting retreat is in the works, promising hands-on projects in a non-brand-specific, community-driven environment.

Whether you're stitching your first block or running a quilting business, Quilting Central invites you to learn, laugh, and quilt along.
