Have you visited City Stitches yet? Oh my gosh. So if I could visit my 20 year old self I would tell that self to be creative like Megan. Be creative before marriage and kids. Ahhhhh that 20 year old self would have been so cool to my 30 year old self. lol So I think Megan is cool and young too. We recently chatted on the Modern Sewciety podcast, episode 22.

I think one of my favorite things about Megan is her enthusiasm about this creative, sewing industry. I think we are two of a kind because it is an exciting time in our industry.

And that awesome quilt in her blog header is made with Anna Maria Horner’s fabric which we talked about on the podcast. We both have a love for all things AMH. She did an Japanese x  and + block for that quilt and even did a great tutorial on her blog. She said this was one of her most popular tutorials and I can see why. What a beautiful block.

Megan is also starting to sell patterns in her City Stitches shop. She has several different patterns and my favorite one has to be the mixed migration pattern. I love love love it so much. it is such a great scrappy quilt. You can also find Megan’s patterns on Craftsy.

Megan is also friends with Christina from Sometimes Crafter, who was on episode 07 of the podcast. Love her so much. Here they are at Sewing Summit. Lucky girls. Megan did a quilt along with Christina’s Retro Flowers quilt pattern. (the above quilt is Christina’s but visit City Stitches for more info on the quilt along.)

I hope that you take a minute to go visit Megan from City Stitches and leave her some comment love.
