This week on *Not Your Granny's Quilt Show*, we’re joined by the dynamic and joy-filled HollyAnne Knight—founder and CEO of **String & Story**. HollyAnne’s creative journey took root in childhood with sewing, blossomed through years of dancing and painting, and eventually became a lifeline during postpartum depression. With grit, grace, and a DIY spirit, she taught herself to make a t-shirt quilt—and never looked back. From launching an Etsy shop to building a vibrant online quilting community, HollyAnne turned her passion into a thriving business that now includes an in-person shop, popular free motion quilting courses, and teaching at major quilting events. She’s also a proud sponsor of the Bad Ass Quilters Society and a firm believer that creativity should be *fun* and *spark joy*. Explore her world at [www.stringandstory.com](http://www.stringandstory.com) and tune in for an inspiring conversation that proves quilting is anything but old-fashioned. Want to see more?
