About this listen

 In this episode, Anna joins Cathy to talk about some of their favorite topics: textile art, creative kids, reading, and our crazy culture. American Patchwork; Americans seem to be holding it together, like one giant crazy quilt. An educator and artist, Anna talks about how textile projects can help kids’ brains connect in wonderful and creative ways. She even shares a super-easy lesson plan she uses to teach her art students to love sewing. Plus, she shares some ideas for vaccinating your kids against defeat and self-doubt. And how textile art can give your child a sense of belonging and a healthy identity. And she shares how textile art helped her process grief. And she gently edits my definition of mindfulness. Yep, we packed a ton in this episode!
