Spencer Wright and Sandy Labby discuss how Sandy combined a career in education with a love for sewing. When a previous owner of the quilt shop she worked with decided to retire, Sandy was called to pick up the sewing education portion of the business by her community.

Sandy tells how helpful the local small business development center was in showing her how to compliment her skills with small business experts to get started. From business plans to software to naming her business, she leaned on experts and friends to get the expertise she needed.
