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.

Meet Justin Stafford owner of Keaton Quilts! - Ep. 168
This week on Not Your Granny’s Quilt Show, my guest is Justin Stafford, owner of Keaton Quilt - the last standing quilt shop in New York City. Nestled in the heart of the Flower District, Keaton Quilts is a hub for fabric lovers, offering a wide selection of fabrics and notions, longarm quilting, classes, and the warmth of Justin’s passion for the fiber arts.Justin’s love for sewing began at age 12 with his very first quilt - a piece he still treasures today. Growing up, creativity was his safe space, and it has carried him into a thriving career. His work has been featured in the windows of Saks Fifth Avenue, he’s authored a book with a mini quilt kit, and he’s now collaborating with Liberty of London (a dream come true!) on patterns for their upcoming fabric launch. Justin is also developing his own fabric line, inspired by the city he loves mos - New York.Join us for this inspiring conversation, and be sure to visit www.keatonquilts.comto learn more about Justin and his shop.Want to see more?
