Measure Twice, Cut Once
....and other life and business lessons learned from quilting. Makers have stories! And crafters have skills!
In these casual chats and interviews, I (often with a guest) talk honestly about creativity. The joy, and hope, and even healing it can bring, and the businesses we can build doing the things we love.
Measure Twice, Cut Once
Carina Gardner - Surface Designer and Business Builder
Carina Gardner and I chat about business building and entrepreneurial skills. Tenacity...the willingness to learn and stretch...these are essential.
There's no magic - it takes time and determination to establish and grow a business, but Carina's successes will encourage you!
Carina has a Ph.D. in Design from the University of Minnesota. She
has been a Creative Director for a scrapbooking company and children’s
company. She has designed everything from dishware to bracelets under her
brand for retailers. She currently designs fabric for Riley Blake Designs, and

create meaningful design careers while making a residual income online in her
