Love the podcast! It feels like you’re listening to your good friends having a chat, and you usually get to learn something along the way! If you’re not learning about something in particular, you’re at least getting all the background on the thought process of Gertie’s work. It helps to put a smile on my face and boost my mood 😁👗🧵🪡🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜
I have been following Gretchen’s work for a long time, and I am so excited to listen to this podcast! I commuted to work today listening to episode one and I realized my cheeks were stuck in a grin when I arrived at my job today, because I was enjoying it so much. 💙🪡🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Thank you for sharing your vulnerability and the fun of Charm!
I am so happy she’s making these podcasts!
This is my new favorite sewing podcast. Like the Gertie books, they are filled with fashion history, sewing tips, beautiful designs (that you can see in her links), and inspiration to try to create something that may have otherwise seemed intimidating. I think it’s wonderful that the audience gets to hear from Gretchen and to get to know her as a person instead of the focus being on her more public alter ego, Gertie. I can’t wait to sew more of her designs.
I could listen to these two ladies talk all day long! I have loved getting to know the Charm Patterns brand the last few years. I look forward to more episodes, feeling like I have nerdy seeing friends to hang out with, and getting glimpses behind the curtains at Charm!
