Episode 32: Guest - Genesis Hall | The Genesis of a Journey

This week on The Sewcial Hour Podcast, Bethany and Audra are thrilled to welcome 15-year-old award-winning quilter and fabric designer, Genesis Hall! 🌟

From living abroad as a military kid to launching her debut fabric collection with Riley Blake Designs, Genesis’ story is a beautiful example of how creativity, courage, and community can come together to shape a young artist’s path. She shares how travel, culture, and curiosity have influenced her quilting style and how she’s balancing teenage life with an emerging career in the sewing industry.

We chat about her first fabric line — “The Genesis of a Journey” — inspired by her time growing up in Europe, and her exciting collaborations with Renaissance Ribbons and Aurifil Thread. Plus, Genesis offers heartfelt advice for other young makers finding their voice in a creative world that’s often a few generations older.

Stick around for our rapid-fire fun round, some “You Love to See It” wins, and an inspiring look at what’s next for this rising star of the sewing community.
