This week I’m joined by Sarah Ruth Morris of Ruthlessly Handmade. Education researcher, quilter, and mother of two boys in Texas. Sarah’s quilts are stitched with purpose: each one is part of her ongoing practice of learning to love more deeply.Through quilt fundraisers, she has rallied makers and supporters to uplift children in need. She raised funds for Isaiah 117 House in the fall and beginning a new fundraiser benefiting The Trevor Project in spring 2026. Sarah’s heart for care and community runs through everything she creates.In recent years, quilting has also become a space for Sarah to process and express her evolving spirituality. Her art-driven quilts explore the tender, complicated emotions of deconstructing old beliefs, imagery that has resonated powerfully with many survivors who see themselves reflected in her work.You can explore Sarah’s quilts and learn how to support upcoming fundraisers at ruthlesslyhandmade.com or follow her at @ruthlesslyhandmade on Instagram.

This week on Not Your Granny’s Quilt Show, I’m joined by Jenni Engleman, owner of HandCraft Happy Hour in Baltimore. It's a cozy, colorful craft shop that feels like home the moment you walk through the door. ☕🧵💖 Jenni shares how a dream she once imagined with her aunt turned into a thriving community space where makers come to learn, laugh, stitch, snack, and sometimes just grab a hug and a cup of coffee. HandCraft Happy Hour is more than a shop, it’s a gathering place for creativity and connection. From classes and in-store retreats to 5th Saturday Sales and a calendar packed with fun events, there’s always something happening at HandCraft Happy Hour. Jenni tells the story of building this joyful hub and what it means to support makers of all kinds. Take a peek at everything they’re doing at HandCraftHappyHour.com, and enjoy this heartwarming episode! ✨Want to see more?
