The oh-so-lovely Hannah Austin of Needle OR Thread joins Jen to discuss the good ol' topic of “fine art vs craft” and how the community is shifting the dialogue and understanding while touching on how art forms/crafts typically labeled as "female" have usually been considered inferior to those traditionally done by men and the intersectionality of it all. Hannah also shares how she started her business and how her art has been healing through tough times.
