Show notes
#058 - Karlee Porter is a life-long artist, always going in her own direction. So it makes sense that when she turned to quilting, especially long-arm quilting, she took to doing it her way - and teaches other to follow their own inspiration too.
We talked about important industry things - like pricing according to the complexity of the pattern, and how to navigate (and not participate in) the gatekeeping that plagues most craft industries.
She also talked about creating her company Honest Fabric with very deliberate environmental considerations at the forefront, and a structure for paying its artist partners a very close second.
