– quotes from Cori Eichelberger of the Irocknits Podcast

Video Tutorial for How to Wrap the Edge Border Stitches on the Cori’s Stories Cowl (Intarsia Method) - It’s Easy! YOUTUBE

If you’re not a podcast viewer, these 5 quotes won’t make much sense to you but I’ll give a brief description here if you’d like to be in on a little inside humor.

Keep it colorful: I love color, and lots of it. I started signing off my podcast with Keep it colorful from the very beginning. You can love gray, but it’s just not for me, but don’t worry, some of my best friends are gray lovers.

Waddle On: I got stuck in a Charlie Brown statue in Stillwater, MN in May of 2019 as we walked to the local candy store with friends. I tried to duck underneath the arm of the statue to get to the other side and my backpack got stuck. My friend, Matt, was behind me and I asked him to give me a push and we were all laughing so hard that I was literally stuck for a number of minutes.

Keep Your Fork: The fork story is available on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0Ih5m_9hxM
But basically, it’s a family story that starts with women cleaning up the kitchen after a big meal and yelling “keep your forks, dessert is coming.”

Cori’s Colors: And the favorite color is orange, not neon orange, not super bright orange, not dark orange or rust. Just the right orange.

Cori’s Stories: I’ve always been a storyteller. Early on in my podcasting journey, I started telling a story on almost each episode. This became an integral component to the podcast to this day. Someday I may even write them all up in a book.
