Show Notes
This week on Not Your Granny’s Quilt Show, I’m delighted to welcome Kishanna Bousselaire of Black Girl Magic Quilting, a maker whose work is bursting with color, pattern, and playful creativity.Kishanna loves working with bright fabrics and bold prints, creating quilts that feel joyful and intentional. She’s also the sample quilt maker for Sewlarium in Portland, Oregon, where her attention to detail and thoughtful fabric choices really shine. A self-proclaimed super fan of Ruby Star Society fabrics and designers, Kishanna enjoys finding fresh, creative ways to showcase their prints in her work. Sustainability is an important part of Kishanna’s quilting practice. She’s always thinking about how to use every last bit of fabric, from playful scrap projects to her current favorite, fussy cutting adorable motifs and turning scraps into Christmas ornaments. 🎄 Kishanna is also growing her presence on YouTube, where she shares sewing tutorials, reviews, and behind-the-scenes looks at her process. Be sure to check out her beautiful work on social media and give her YouTube channel a like and subscribe.
