Week 10: Dream Big

I really enjoyed all that I read and listened to this week, but I feel I got so much out of being able to interview an entrepreneur. Being able to get advice from someone who has done what I only dream to do and to be able to get a foot into a world that I am learning about. For almost the last 5 years I have been quilting and this world has challenged me so much, but I have learned along the way. When I was first starting out I learned how to quilt from YouTube and slowly getting the courage to go quilt stores. I have been able to meet the most wonderful men and women (yes, men quilt too and they are so awesome at it). For the past few years I have been thinking about opening my own quilt shop, but never knew what route to take or if a physical store or an online one. 

 

I was able to get advice from Kris Thurgood. She is the owner of My Girlfriends Quilt Shoppe in Logan, Utah and Midway, Utah. I was able to pick her brain and get to know her even better than I did before. As I have seen her grow her business I have seen the great choices she has made and also the ones that she is hoping to make a difference and an impact into others lives. I want to make an impact as well and so as I continue to dream I hope one day I just go for it. To not be scared of the unknown and to always learn.
