Episode #130: Anne Weil

On today's episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast we're talking about going from blogger to author and teacher with my guest, Anne Weil. Anne is the creator of the blog Flax & Twine (https://www.flaxandtwine.com/)  and a designer of patterns and projects that have been published by Martha Stewart, Design*Sponge, Elle Decor, Real Simple, and the Huffington Post. The author of Weaving Within Reach (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/045...)  (affiliate link) and  Knitting Without Needles (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/080...)  (affiliate link), Anne teaches classes nationwide at art retreats and local yarn stores and online at Creativebug.com (https://www.creativebug.com/instructo...)  and Craftsy.com (https://www.craftsy.com/sewing/classe...) . She lives in Denver, Colorado, with her family. I was lucky to have Anne visit me in my studio for this interview while she was in town as part of her book tour. It's always especially nice to be able to record an interview in person. Catch up with Anne on Instagram (  / flaxandtwine  ) to see what's she's up to and visit her shop (https://flax-and-twine.myshopify.com/) to browse all of her books, patterns, supplies, and kits. +++++ This episode of the While She Naps podcast is sponsored by Search Press North America, bestselling books for sewing, quilting, knitting, fine art and many other crafts.
