It’s an honor and a privilege to have these two talented women in my Quilt Pattern Writing Course AND on this week’s episode, Current Quilt Pattern Writing Students: Julia Davis and Kimberly Forman. Take a glimpse into their lives and businesses as they share with us their backgrounds, where they are in their business, why they are taking my course and how what they are learning will help them with their business goals.
I love hearing my students and fellow quilters stories. Their journey’s are so diverse. I appreciate the skills and talents they have and what they bring to the table in the quilting world. Each of our uniqueness and our willingness to share our experiences builds such a wonderful community of quilterpreneurs.
