Welcome! We are multi-faceted. We began as a research podcast by Dr. Townsend Gard at Tulane University Law School.
We've grown into a community about quilting, crafting, entrepreneurship and intellectual property.​

Theresa McFarling
Interviewed by Elizabeth Townsend Gard
Date June 2018
​
Theresa is part of "Quilt Your Own Adventure," and we've interviewed Shelly who is part of that. Now Theresa comes to us. Her goal is to win a blue ribbon at the Iowa state fair. She also has designed a few patterns.
​
Here is her bio:
​
"I was bitten by the quilt bug nine years ago. I am a selflf-taught quilter, which mostly means I learn a lot through mistakes! I have progressed through machines, and find the most joy with my Janome 1600dp, which allows me to piece fast, admittedly because I myself have two speeds...on and off. As much as love piecing, my true love is applique.I love nothing more than hand appliqueing on a quiet evening. My goal for the last four years has been to win a blue ribbon at the Iowa State Fair! However, since joining the Des Moines Quilt Guild this year, I am discovering there are so many other ways to show my quilts! So...this goal may need to be edited! I have received a couple second place ribbons but it is not good enough! I need the blue! I am blessed with several friends that are also dedicated quilters, and we have just ventured into the quilting blog arena (quiltyourownadventure.com) I see exicting quilting stuff on the horizon from us! We are a perfect storm of quilt goodness, complimenting each other with our strengths and areas of interest. The best part of quilting is pulling a finished quilt from the dryer, seeing the crinkled cottness, and snuggling down. Pure. Joy."
