- A treasure
I’ve just learned of this amazing work of education and storytelling by Jo Andrews. Although it is 2026, I’m starting at the beginning of the podcast with my listening. This is a must for anyone who practices the creative hand arts.

This podcast has fascinating information and insights. I particularly loved the Canadian Red Cross War Quilt episode. My mother, and grandmother participated in a war support effort called “Bundles for Britain and also knitted wool socks for soldiers
Apple Podcasts5AuntikacksewsUnited States4 months ago - Content amazing, audio mixing needs work
I adore the content of this podcast but the poor audio mixing between audio clips from the host and her guests makes it impossible to listen to. In the Foundling episode especially, audio would swing from being inaudible to blowing out your eardrums.
Apple Podcasts3maddy texasUnited States5 months ago - Pandora Dolls ?
I had no idea such a thing existed! What a fascinating story I couldn’t wait to get to my destination so I could stop driving and look them up, I wanted to ask so many questions! How were they packaged ? What were the faces like ? Were there male versions or children? Were they named ? Did they make multiples of the same or were they all individual? How much did they cost?
I think I’ll be going down a rabbit hole later!

United Kingdom7 months ago - Alternately whispering and shouting
I love the content of this podcast, but it is extremely difficult to listen to. The difference in volume between the host and the recordings she plays is huge. I have to crank it up to hear the recordings, then be ready to quickly turn it way down when the host begins talking again. I really, really want to listen to every episode, but I’ve found it impossible. Too much frustration and too many volume related jump scares
