    "Quilt Shop Drop-In" (a new 3-part series) follows Jenny, the dynamic face of Missouri Star Quilt Company, as she crisscrosses the country, visiting quilt shops to reconnect with old friends, learn new tricks, and infuse each community with her infectious passion for quilting.

Join Jenny and HollyAnne as they weave tales of quilting education, community building, and the shared passion for transforming mistakes into beautiful stories of resilience and artistic expression.

    My favorite part was when Jenny came out of Strings & Story, Ron was waiting, they joined hands and walked off into the sunset together. I think Ron and Jenny’s story is such a sweet one, it’s obvious he fully supports Jenny. Love this couple ❤. Also enjoyed seeing this quilt shop, I’m liking this new series.

    Many thanks from Taiwan. Due to my physical condition, quilting, shopping from MSQ, and watching Jenny's tutorials have been a tonic for my soul and mind. Now a trip with Jenny and the camera to other quilters! How heart-warming and spirit-cheering! Thank you.

    In these days of turmoil and strife, these Quilters are taking bits of love and fabrics and threads and attempting to piece this world back together. The gift of sharing these handmade items touches the hearts of the receiver, every time they use the gift.... that joy and love that it was sewn with is felt all over again. I personally love to make and give these items and appreciate when I receive one as well. It is a real treasure. Thank God For All The Quilters and The Love They Create and Share!

    I couldn't love this more, for several reasons. Jenny taking the opportunity to "spotlight" quilt shops, introducing us all to so many wonderful people and aspects of quilting. Hollyanne's enthusiasm and willingness to teach is contagious. I just moved away from the Atlanta area and really regret not stopping by String & Story. Congratulations to String & Story on such a fun blessing for your shop and your "Rockstars". Thank you to Jenny and Missouri Star for showcasing these shops. Can't wait for the next video!

Jenny never ceases to inspire, and this series is such a great idea. I am teaching myself to free motion quilt by the very method of “just do it”! I’m loving my quilting journey and look forward to many more episodes of Jenny bringing us so much more inspiration!
