This week on Not Your Granny’s Quilt Show, I’m so excited to finally sit down with Joshua Dunn of Lifting and Stitching, a maker who blends strength, science, and stitching in the coolest way possible. Joshua and I have spent plenty of time chatting behind the scenes, bonding over vegan food, lifting weights, and all the unexpected ways our creative lives overlap. His quilting inspiration often comes from the universe itself, using stunning images of space to spark bold, movement-filled designs. His quilt Red Giant, which hung at QuiltCon 2025, is just one jaw-dropping example of his cosmic creativity. Joshua also shares an exciting project for this year’s Quiltmas Spectacular quilt-along, where he’s one of the featured block designers! His candy cane–inspired block is rooted in a sweet childhood memory of hanging candy canes on the Christmas tree with his family, sentimental and festive all at once. With even more exciting projects on the horizon and inspiration that truly reaches beyond our home planet, Joshua is a maker you’ll definitely want to keep an eye on.

Meet Kaye Collins of Oh Kaye Quilting, The Lazy Quilters Club & HandiQuilter ! - Ep. 172
This week on Not Your Granny’s Quilt Show my guest is Kaye Collins of Oh Kaye Quilting, The Lazy Quilters Club, and HandiQuilter.Kaye spent years as a high school band teacher before retiring and leaning fully into her quilting practice. A member of the Salt Lake City Modern Quilt Guild, Kaye had a fateful (and masked!) meeting during Covid with HandiQuilter’s Kim Sandberg, which opened the door for her to become a HandiQuilter educator. Now she travels across the country teaching quilters of all levels how to make the most of their machines.Kaye also founded The Lazy Quilters Club, where she shares her love for making sewing and quilting easier and more enjoyable. As she jokes, “quilters aren’t lazy...they’re some of the most innovative, creative people you’ll ever meet!” Her mantra is simple but powerful: have fun and relax! Quilting shouldn’t stress you out.Check out her work at ohkayequilting.com or find her tips and tricks on Instagram @thelazyquiltersclub Please enjoy Kaye Collins!Want to see more?
