Happy Tuesday and Youth day - here is the interview done by the lovely madebyjalene at the Cape Town Yarn Festival
it was a delight to share my love of quilting and why I started The Quilting Co. and to have my product so well received by other creatives.

📺 THE QUILTING CO

Where creativity meets calm.

At Cape Town Yarn Festival 2026, I stood at Tracy's stall on the festival floor — between customers, on a busy Sunday afternoon — and asked her about The Quilting Co. About her ready-to-sew kits, the Sassy Succulents English Paper Piecing workshop she ran, and what "creativity meets calm" actually means to her.

At one point an attendee bumped my camera and the view shifted off Tracy entirely. I left it in. It's a quilter at her stall on a Sunday afternoon in Fishhoek — a feature, not a flaw.

If you've been quilt-curious for a while — Tracy's kits are exactly where to start. One hexagon at a time.

❤️ Thank you, Tracy — for the time, for the kits, and for what you're doing to make quilting feel less intimidating for everyone.
