Thanks, Peggy, for the round-up and including Quilting and Patchwork. The Arts Bloggers project is such a fun one.
Hi Peggy,
Thanks so much for sharing the news about “Birthing the
Elephant” with creative crafters doing such lovely work!
I know that combining artwork and the business end
of a start-up can be very exciting but challenging as well.
Understanding what some of the predictable problems
and pitfalls are during a start-up can be really take some
of the stress out of the process and make it more fun.
That’s one of the reasons “Birthing the Elephant” was
written: to give women an emotional road map to
getting their ventures off the ground. All the best
with your artistic endeavors!
Mary Emma, You are welcome and thanks for stopping by.
Karin, thanks for visiting. Books that take the stress out are always great! : )
