Show Notes
This week on Not Your Granny’s Quilt Show, I’m joined by Laura Raquel Duran and Lina Owen of Quilting With Latinas, two passionate makers who are bringing bilingual resources and cultural connection to the quilting community! Laura and Lina are the co-authors of Learn-to-Quilt: Bilingual Guide Book, a first-of-its-kind quilting resource written in both English and Spanish. After realizing how few Spanish-language materials were available, they teamed up to create a guide that’s not only educational but also celebrates their cultural roots with stories and inspiration woven throughout. Their mission to make quilting more accessible has even caught the attention of big names like Moda, Riley Blake, Bernina, and Art Gallery Fabrics, who are working with them to expand language accessibility in quilting patterns and content.Check out their beautiful tutorials and vibrant community on Instagram and YouTube at @quiltingwithlatinas, and grab a copy of Learn-to-Quilt: Bilingual Guide Book to support their incredible work! ✨Want to see more?
