The last thread I found on here for YouTube and podcast recommendations was from 2019.
I'm looking to branch out my quilting YouTube channels, maybe we have some to exchange?
I tend to shy away from those run by large quilting companies/stores. I don’t enjoy videos or tutorials that are basically an infomercial: buy this in house fabric kit (ca-ching) use this template (ca-ching) and our special pins and rotary cutter (ca-ching ca-ching)! I have also slowly gravitated away from channels that have a big emphasis on speed and throughput. I felt like I was internalizing this message that there was some sort of race or expectation on how fast I complete projects.
I really enjoy channels where the outcome isn’t always perfect or they leave in mistakes and show some unsewing along the way. I like a conversational style, and enjoy creativity or improv along the way, helps me remember to think outside the box too. I am very interested in following sewing/quilting channels that focus on reusing/up cycling vintage or older fabrics, as that’s usually what I am working with.
