Welcome to 2017!
As I look back through 2016, I have to say I was truly
blessed with new a beginning for me personally and continued growth for
Quilting Affection. Personally, 2016 was
a lifestyle changing journey to lose weight and get healthy. My new lifestyle allowed me to lose 50+lbs,
as of today. I’m healthy and have tons
of energy to work on my pattern designs, and exercise. I have also found a love
of hiking.
As for Quilting Affection, I made several decisions that took
my pattern designing business up a notch. I was truly blessed to be accepted as
an Island Batik Ambassador and pattern designer for them. Timeless Treasure Fabrics also accepted a
couple of my patterns. In addition, a
few patterns I put out this year are designed to use Bloc_Rulers. I also expanded out and began Teaching EQ7
and offering Trunk Shows.
In 2017, I have several goals for the business and
myself. Personally, I want to hike parts
of the Colorado and Appalachian Trails. Also
I want to help others learn how to change their lifestyles and get healthy. Then I want to set aside time to work on
Unfinished or Unstarted Quilting Projects.
As for the business, I have several goals and have already started
a few.
- I want to be more active
on the Social Media, Newsletters, and Blogs for the business.
- Design a couple patterns a
month to be published in the future or in magazine publications.
- Make my business name more
known and respected.
- Vend at more Local Quilt
Shows in the Virginia and Maryland area.
- Expand my teaching and talking
to guilds and other quilts.
- Learn more about how grow
my business.
- To keep working with
Fabric Companies to highlight there fabrics.
- Finish some personal
quilting
I will keep you all posted on our progress on these goals
throughout the year. I hope you all have
a good 2017 and all your quilting goals come true.
Tina
