Here it is. My first PodCast from my quilting studio in the South Bay Area. Quilting Stash is the name of my “podcast” – an mp3 program broadcast on the internet that anyone can download and listen to. The “pod” part came from Apple’s iPod – the hottest piece of hardware on the consumer market. If you don’t know what an iPod is, go to www.apple.com. You don’t need an iPod to download and listen to my PodCasts. You can download them simply by clicking on the PodCast button above and playing on your home computer’s mp3 player.
What’s A Quilt Stash?
How could Quilting Stash not be piles and piles and piles of color-coordinating fabric, sitting on a shelf, waiting to be picked for a special project? Well, it IS and it’s not. It can also be something else… the name of a new feature on my website!
In this program, I will talk about quilting – everything from soups to nuts. So, you get to hear my cheery voice expound on all points of quilting wisdom. ; ) Additional features will include interviews with well-known teachers and wonderful quilters.
In this first show, you’ll notice that I’m as wobbly as a baby taking her first steps with audio levels going up and down and my popping in the microphone. I could have started over, but then there would be something else equally noticeable 🙂 That’s the beauty of PodCasting, it doesn’t have to be shiny and perfect like a radio broadcast. It’s raw, most often unscripted, while being informative and fun!
I also review a block of the month package that came in the mail just moments before I began the show.
This introductory program introduces the concept of PodCasting, the topics I plan to cover in the upcoming shows and I talk a little about myself.

In the meantime, I’ll keep working on the production quality of the show; it can only get better.
