Su Valley Voice for November 9th, 2024: Patchwork Moose and Talkeetna Historical Society

In this episode of Su Valley Voice host Trisha Costello is in conversation with two Talkeetna residents, both with downtown Talkeetna ventures.  First is Lori Outland, owner of The Patchwork Moose, a quilt and fabric shop across the street from the post office.  In 2023 the Patchwork Moose moved its operations one door down from a very tiny little cabin to a much larger space, filled it with bolts and bolts of fabrics and has now outfitted its basement classroom space with 8 Bernina sewing machines.  They  chat about Fall/Winter class offerings as well as what it’s been like to grow a business – a passion for quilting – in Talkeetna.   

In the second half of the show Autumn Merritt talks about her new role as Talkeetna Historical Society Museum Manager.  As most of you with a fuel bill to pay in town will remember Autumn’s  cheery, happy, helpful voice of the Crowley office for years.  She also is a volunteer evening newsreader on Tuesday evenings, right here on KTNA.
