Show Notes
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?
