Giveaway Day: Quilting Podcast Love

Happy Monday everyone ~ It's Giveaway Day! Sew Mama Sew's biannual event is finally here!
For those of you whom are new here, I record and publish a quilting podcast of my own called The History Quilter Podcast. I began recording my own podcast as a way to give back to all of the other quilting podcasts out there which allow me to be entertained and educated while washing dishes, exercising,  gardening, etc.  Because I get so much out of the quilting podcasts I listen to, I wanted to share them all with you:  here is a list of my fellow quilting podcasters and locations in which you can find them via iTunes or Podbean. After you have entered all of the giveaway's you possibly can, come back here and please check out my fellow quilting podcasters - I promise you will be entertained and educated.

Quilting Podcast list - in no particular order.  Click on their name to visit their website.

     The History Quilter Podcast ~ yea that's me.
     Lazy Daisy Quilts- Daisy
     The Off-Kilter Quilt -  Frances
     Quilting For The Rest of Us -  Sandy
     Hip To Be A Square - Pam
     Crafty Garden Mom - Tanesha
     Scientific Quilter - Darla
     Peacebrook Quilting - Victoria
     Quilt Cabana Corner - Sandi

     The Pioneer Quilter - Kelley
     Quilted Cupcake - Jean
     Quilter in the Gap - Rhonda

In honor of Giveaway Day, I'm giving away the complete quilt kit you see below which includes the Walkin' the Line pattern, 8 fat quarters, borders, binding and backing.  The quilt will measure up as 51" x 71".
My giveaway is open until Friday, May 25th at 5:00pm Pacific Time and I will announce the winner on Saturday.  I am happy to ship internationally so all may enter.

To enter my giveaway tell me if you listen to any podcasts, quilting, travel, food, anything - it doesn't matter...but also tell me why you like to listen to it.  The historian in me needs a little analysis, not just the data.  :)

Enjoy your Monday ~ yea it's Monday!
Susan

  1. I listen to podcasts to be entertained while doing something else. I listen to quite a few of the quilting podcasts on your list. And thanks for the list so I can check out a few I'm not familiar with!

  3. I love to listen to audio books and watch quilting youtube videos, but I've never listened to a podcast. I guess maybe I should, just never thought about it. Thanks for the list, I will try them out.

    Your giveaway is scrumptious! Definitely my colors.

  4. I've never listened to pod casts but will check yours out. I do a lot of youtube videos and such... I guess I'm more of a visual person and prefer to see things and retain more that way...

  5. Great giveaway and thanks for the list of podcasts! I think you already know I only really listen to yours - and that's cuz I like you so much! ;-) I learn stuff and you make me smile, and I like to hear you talk while I sew...

  6. I have never listened to a podcast. I am pretty much technically ignorant. I would if I could figure out how. Can I watch them on my iPad?

  7. My husband just told me last night that my Facebook/blog addiction has been taken over by a podcast addiction. I have been listening to the History Chicks which I love! History is awesome and those gals are funny and have great voices. It is way more fun to learn when you can laugh and just generally enjoy what is being shared.
    I have discovered that voices play a big part for me. I have tried a few podcasts where the voices were lacking, or kind of grated on me and I could not carry on listening. I like those personal detours off topic too, as long as they don't leave me hanging with whatever they were talking about. I'm sure there are other things that draw or repel me, but now I have to get my kids off to school. :) Have a great day!

  9. YES, I am a huge podcast fan. In fact, I scoured your list, hoping that you had one listed that I had missed. (nope) I listen because I feel like all of you podcasters are my friends, chatting with me. OK - chatting at me (grin) but even if you don't know it, I talk back to you too. And you all inspire me to quilt more.

  10. Susan, I must admit I don't allow myself the time. But, after reading some of these replies, I could just let 'er go while I do another task. Goning to give it a try today, while I'm packing. Oh, I will be listening to you of course.

  27. Hi Susan, I listen to all the quilting podcasts and have since the beginning. I learned about podcasts from an article in a quilting magazine; they are the only reason I purchased an Ipod. I listen because they give me ideas and because I feel like I have a quilting friend with me whenever I want.

    Thank you so much for doing your podcast - I always enjoy it! Tami In Denver

  64. I listen to lots of quilting podcasts, including yours. I also listen to audio books. I love to have the company while I'm driving or quilting, and it makes me feel like I'm more efficiently using my time - doing two things at once! I get to keep up on what's happening in the quilting world in areas besides my little part of it and learn from other quilters. I also like that I can have "company" that doesn't expect me to answer back in the conversation. :)

    Thanks for your podcast and this great giveaway!

  65. As someone who was early into the whole podcasting boat, I started listening to Annie Smith's Quilting Stash when it first was available and have added almost every other quilting podcast as they appeared. Since I have 8 hours a day of listening time and don't have access to a radio, I subscribe to 40+ different shows and cover about 15 different topics (knitting, quilting, scifi, science, short stories, and paranormal, among others). I like to tell people that I don't know the meaning of bored. ;)

My favorite is Knitting Pipeline -- Paula's content is very interesting, and her manner is really warm and engaging. Also, the sound quality is really good, which is why I have stopped listening to some crafty podcasts. I also listen to iMake, which I like for the same reasons.

  107. I don't listen to podcasts ever! I listened to one on my iPod Touch before it died (refuses to charge now) and I couldn't really get excited about it. I don't learn well orally (I really need to see stuff to understand-give me a book anyday!) plus I feel like I need to be able to hear what my 2-year-old is up to at all times. I'm a weirdo though-back when I ran cross-country I never trained with earphones because I felt like I couldn't hear what was going on around me and that bothered me. Anyway, I'm definitely not a podcast person!

  108. I like to listen to non-fiction books and NPR when I'm sewing. I've found that it's easier for my attention to sort of wander and then jump back into listening when it's news/non-fiction as opposed to a story with a plot line! I do also listen to podcasts, sometimes, but sometimes I just forget about them! Thanks for the links to so many!

  140. Ekk!! What a great giveway! I haven't listened to many podcasts lately, but in the past I have listened to bible sermons through them. I actually didn't realize there were ones for quilting, cooking, etc. I'm going to do some more research now! :-) Thanks for the giveaway!

  145. I listen to several public radio podcasts (TAL, The World in Words, Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, Radiolab, etc..)-- I love to learn new things and I love listening, so the medium is a good fit for me.

  146. I downloaded 2 of Rhonda's podcasts in the past (Quilter in the Gap) and listened to 1.5 of them. Here is why I haven't been back to them...I hate earbuds, which I have to use since no one else in my family wants to listen, so that is strike number 1, and number 2 is that I HATE I-tunes and pretty much all things that involve using I-tunes, so it totally isn't worth it to me to get so frustrated. I hope this helps and isn't too negative sounding, I do like listening, it just doesn't seem to be a good fit for me to get them and listen to them...does that make sense?

  148. Hmm, I've tried an NPR podcast, but somehow have quite gotten the hang of finding/storing/retrieving something I want to listen to! I need remedial podcast classes! Maybe I'll try to find yours!

  154. I love to listen to podcasts! To a running podcast while I run, to shows like Wait Wait Don't Tell Me because I never seem to be home at the right time to catch them on air, to A Way With Words to satisfy my inner word nerd, and to crafting podcasts to share ideas with other crafters. I listen while working out, sometimes in the car, doing housework, doing simple craft work. They're excellent company while cutting out pieces for a quilt!

  158. So I was trying to decide whether or not to take a quilting class and figured I'd listen to a podcast or two. It's all Frances' fault. She got me to Pam, Tanesha, Sandy, you and Katie and Daisy and now it's just a free for all. Add all of you to the knitting podcasts, NPR and miscellaneous others and I've always got earbuds in my ears. We all drive, walk, knit, sew, cook and clean together. Bet you didn't realize how much fun you were having. Me? What do I know? I hear voices.

  159. Sad to say that I don't listen to podcasts (not just yours). I tend to spend my time on the internet at work and I don't like earbuds, so anything with audio gets ignored. LOL

  181. I listen to a number of BBC Radio 4 podcasts such as From Our Own Correspondent and Crossing Continents. I love them as they give an insight into things going on in the world, both related to major news stories and things that never make the news.

    I'm also going to listen to some of yours as the history of quilting sounds facinating

  199. I listen to lots of quilting and knitting podcasts while excercising, housekeeping, gardening and crafting...after I've heard the news of the day on NPR. One can only take so much of the political news, so I check in with real people all over the world via their podcasts, not always in real time. But I feel i know a bit about life all over the world that way. Thnaks for your podcast, and the giveaway!
