I'm working on a series of Blog Posts explaining how AI Chatbots are affecting how a quilt business is found and how to optimize online presence for Chatbots (GEO or Generative Engine Optimization).

Good news is SEO and GEO are similar (yay!)

Do you have any specific questions around this topic?

Thank you! I really appreciate that!

Let’s face it - building an online presence can feel like one more thing on your never-ending to-do list. But here’s the truth: showing up online with intention can open doors you didn’t even know were there.

This weekend, during our monthly call, my client started with, “I didn’t do anything.” By the end, we realized she had accomplished so much, even in the face of deeply emotional and time consuming challenges.

It reminded me that taking a step back to reflect is crucial when we feel overwhelmed 🩷

Quilting is therapeutic and grounding when things feel crazy and overwhelming 🩷

I had a fun strategy session this morning, helping a quilt pattern designer figure out her next steps! I even have another on Saturday with a course creator who wants to start on demand classes on her website 🩷

I feel like I’m working in my zone of genius and my heart is full!

AUDACIOUS the Quilt Business Retreat was successful!

Every quilter walked away with a launch plan, B-roll, and headshots for their next offer. 🎉

AUDACIOUS and QuiltCon, here I come! #quiltcon2025

I got started on graph paper designing blocks for my own quilts. After that I used PowerPoint or took actual pictures of the steps for my first published patterns. My last few, I used a combo of pictures and Canva. I wrote the directions like I would talk and then refined with a few pattern testers.

This quilt pattern is Deco by Lo & Behold - it came together well!

I enjoyed some much needed time on the longarm this weekend!

I used to teach free motion quilting, but it’s been a few years. It was wonderful to practice skills I haven’t used in a long time!

If you’re a quilter interested in teaching - check out my book: Workshops Unleashed! Link in my profile

It’s a good time to start sewing.

It's a brand new year and I've heard:

"Someday I'd like to teach"

"I'd like to teach sewing this year."

"My goal is to start teaching to Guilds”

If you have a goal to start teaching or to improve your classes in 2025, join the Workshops Unleashed Book Club!

It doesn’t look glamorous, but WOW was it a huge moment.

Pictured: me signing the first ‘real’ book I published.

It was the conclusion to an almost year and a half journey - I wrote a BOOK to help quilters and crafters with their classes! Workshops Unleashed is available now!

We’re all exhausted, right?

Currently, I’m leaning into rest, organization, and fun 🎉

This Small Business Saturday, I want to celebrate you. As a quilter, crafter, or creative business owner, you’re making a meaningful impact with your work, and it’s incredible to see. 🎉

Thank you!

One day I’ll finish this quilt coat, but for now, it makes a great book cover 🧵🪡
