Customer Reviews
Really enjoy this podcast
Darla has a fresh, endearing approach (I can say 'endearing' because I'm a lot older than she is!!) and I really enjoy each and every podcast. She reminds me of my sister, also a scientist, with her analytical approach. Things like the sewing machine velocity experiment are things you just won't find in any other podcast. I find her point of view intriguing and interesting. Glad to keep listening.
Darla is interested in quilting and in the Quiltcast Super Group
I just finished listening to Darla's podcast the second time. I'm with my sister for the weekend and I wanted her to hear it too. Darla's podcast is an intelligent review of things that she is experiencing in the quilting world. In the last podcast I listened too she talked about the different things that you could get out of going to a quilt show. It was very complete and well analyzed. I think that's the way she thinks in general. It was very appreciated as well as that she was very welcoming to new people at the Quiltcast SuperGroup. I felt like she was extending herself to assure things were going of notice to the general group. I believe she is the/an administrator of the Super Group and she does very well with it, particularly because of her communication skills and that she puts some time and energy into what she's doing. Really nice work Darla!

Enjoy it!
Darla's podcast has a different slant on quilting than usual--the left-brain side. Nice change! I enjoy her experiments and explorations. Thanks, Darla, and keep them coming!
