Talk Gertie To Me

Author: Gretchen "Gertie" Hirsch

Step into the wildly creative, deeply personal world of Charm Patterns with founder Gretchen Gertie Hirsch as she stitches together vintage glamour, pop culture obsessions, body positivity, and unapologetic queerness. From behind-the-scenes design inspo like Slutty Italian Summer to candid conversations on beauty, Broadway, and the messiness of creative life, this podcast is part sewing salon, part slumber party, and always ridiculously fun.
