Quilters Candy

HEY THERE, I'M

elizabeth chappell

As an entrepreneur it’s no surprise I own my own business.  How it ended up as quilting? That’s another story. 
 
My business ideas started early.  When I was 8 years old I went door to door selling homemade mouthwash.  Bless those neighbors who bought some because that success fed into my entrepreneurial spirit. For years I hustled to earn money from jobs like cleaning rooms at Super 8 Motel (yikes, have I got stories) to delivering early morning papers. But my real desire was to create my own business. Fast forward to my mid-thirties when I roped my best friend into starting a business with me. We didn’t know what we would do, but we knew it would be something. 
My friend brought me to International Quilt Market, or rather I invited myself to tag along.  I was blown away.  It turns out quilting is cool. 
 
That’s when Quilters Candy was born.  Around the same time that my friend taught me to quilt, we met with a lawyer and opened Quilters Candy Box. Through the years Quilters Candy Box morphed into Quilters Candy.  It turned from a physical subscription box to an online membership. Along the way I learned how to write and sell quilt patterns and I now teach others to do the same.
 
That desire I had as an 8 year-old turned into something wonderful.  I am glad you are here. Whether you are a quilter or entrepreneur, I am excited to connect!

I had to share my excitement! When I looked at my sales over the last 3 months, thanks to you, your course, some small and some big tweaks - my sales have increased A LOT 😁. I post less to Instagram but I am consistent - with everything - the look, music, feel, words, themes, etc. I honestly didn’t think there had been that much of an increase in sales - but now I’m increasing my monthly target! Thanks for everything you do Elizabeth!
