  • Elizabeth, your podcast has got me from an idea that has been in my head for over 10 years to starting my own online quilt fabric business. Your podcasts are clear and breakdown and explain key challenges when starting out. Best of all you made me realise it is ok to make mistakes along the way. And from those mistakes we can learn and evolve. Thank you for giving me the confidence to go after my dream. Cheers from Australia, Anna at goodtosew.com.au
