| 10/12/26 |  #244: Holding and Working to Your Values with Tatjana Harttung | Have you ever found yourself having to justify your values, creativity or worth? I recently had a conversation with psychotherapist and coach, Tatjana Harttung, for her podcast, The Human Greenhouse, which explored that experience, and plenty more. Tatjana kindly allowed me to share our chat on the CYT feed as well as we touched on so many topics that are fundamental to this podcast also. We discuss our experiences of creating values-based podcasts that have grown communities, the role (or not!) of AI in podcasting, the perception and comparative monetary value of female-created products and content, and the importance of learning new skills and working with our hands. Support the podcast over on Patreon! You can find Tatjana Harttung’s work, including her podcast, The Human Greenhouse, on her website. Tatjana spoke to Nigel Shipley, one of the founders of Extinction Rebellion: Ep. Upgrading Democracy Tatjana attends the online School of Journaling Listen to the episode about the Thread Brothers endeavour: Ep. 234: Making Sewing Accessible for All Genders with Tony Rea We also spoke about my other podcast, Can I Dig It? Food Growing for Busy People, made with my co-host Pippa Chapman. Listen to the episode I made with Pippa when we first met: Ep. 112: Gardening More Sustainably with Pippa Chapman | 59m 24s | ||||||
| 10/6/26 |  #243: Sew The Precious | Imagine if all of us sewists piled up the contents of our fabric collections into one big heap. That would be a huge amount of fabric! Collectively we have A LOT of beautiful and useful fabric already in our possession that just isn’t getting used. You know me, I’m nosey, I want to know WHY that is! Why aren’t we using the pieces we love? And what would it take for us to actually cut into it? This is a community episode that digs into this topic. Support the podcast over on Patreon! Fabric photo by Emma Green via Unsplash Huge thanks to Lindsay Ashworth Fraser for voicing some of the written submissions. Lindsay is a sewist, choir leader and voice over artist, and can be found @lindsayashworthfraser on Instagram. You might have heard Lindsay in the previous episodes: Ep. #180: Secrets of Successful Destashing, Part 1 Ep. #181: Secrets of Successful Destashing, Part 2 Ep. #207: Style Shifts and Sustainability with Lindsay Ashworth Fraser Lindsay is considering the Roman Overcoat Pattern by Maison Fauve for her Harris tweed: Martha has been toiling and fitting the Belemnite Dress pattern by Marilla Walker for her green cotton/hemp fabric bought in Tokyo: Yvonne has a couple of waistcoat project ideas for her precious fabric: Rachel intends to use the Square Shirt pattern by Domum Creation for this Liberty Coastal Landscape Tana Lawn fabric. Debs has is consider both the Jasika Blazer pattern by Closet Core Patterns and the Naomi Blazer pattern by The Modern Sewing Company for her beloved wool: Diana has great plans for the Saturday Top pattern (part of a set) by Friday Pattern Company to use both her special lengths of fabric: Chloe made the Azure Dress pattern by Closet Core Patterns.

| 9/28/26 |  #242: Quiet Care from Loose Ends – Kat Camfield with Masey Kaplan | As crafters, we usually develop a personal bond with our creative projects. But we might not consider the value and importance our crafting projects have for those close to us. And what do you do if a half finished project started by someone close to you falls into your possession that you are unable to finish? Amazing guest host, Kat Camfield, talks to Masey Kaplan, the co-creator of Loose Ends: a non-profit that matches volunteer handwork finishers with projects that have been left behind by people who have passed away, or are no longer able to craft due to illness or disability. Loose Ends is a truly incredible enterprise that is responsible for facilitating so much care and healing for families who are then able to honour and treasure their loved one’s creativity and passion. Support the podcast over on Patreon! Listen to Episode #72: The Return of Canada’s Forgotten Wartime Quilts of the Haptic & Hue podcast. Masey Kaplan officially co-founded Loose Ends (@thelooseendsproject on IG) in May 2023: Photo credit: Michala Rueter Ravelry is sometimes used to view a potential finisher’s work.

| 9/21/26 |  #241: Teatowel Treasures and a Charity Shop Crawl with Ros Williams | Do you enjoy the challenge of making new things out of old? My guest for this week’s episode, Ros Williams, reconnected with her sewing machine during lockdown and has been transforming existing textiles in incredibly creative ways ever since. She even co-organised a charity shop crawl around her area in Edinburgh to help others access and give new life to what already exists in the world. Support the podcast over on Patreon! Follow Ros Williams’s creativity on Instagram @williamsrosamund. Ros initially connected with the online sewing community through the @sewover50 account. Ros also volunteers with previous-guests Judith Staley and Mary Morton as part of the Edinburgh Street Stitchers and through the Shrub Coop. Learn more about the Edinburgh Spiders who weave camouflage nets to send to Ukraine. Ros’s Teatowel jacket making obsession began with the first one she made for her son using teatowels she found in her parents’ home: Ros uses the Ilford Jacket pattern by Friday Pattern Co. as the basis for her jacket creations. More textiles reclaimed from her parents’ home became this yellow and blue tablecloth dress: The Morningside Charity Shop Crawl was organised to promote shopping for second hand clothing, and the poster/leaflet/map was designed by Ros’s son, Jack (@jack_stamp_art): Psychomoda is the organiser of the ReFashion Edinburgh event that Ros will be exhibiting in this year (2026). As part of her HND costume course Ros made a 17thC outfit for her husband John: ….and a Japanese inspired Burlesque outfit: | 49m 18s | ||||||

A professional reporter and correspondent, Jo leaves me awe with her incredible story telling skills. I got to ask her tons of questions about the creation and impact of Haptic and Hue, all posed by the amazing patrons of CYT. Support the podcast over on Patreon! Jo Andrews is the creator of the Haptic & Hue podcast. You can also follow her on Instagram @hapticandhue.
