Appreciated Epusode about StashHub

In this episode the host interviewed the creator ( along with her App designer husband) of StashHub an App for organizing and cateloging your fabric stash, pattern stash, notions etc and linking them to record projects. Interviewers questions were spot on. Very well done.

Thorough review

This podcasts did a very thorough review on the Tilly and the Buttons knit dress and the book it came from. Helped me understand how easy the dress was, what the most challenging steps of the pattern were, what materials you need, which fabrics worked and which didn’t. It also gave an excellent review of the book the pattern came from. By the end of the podcast I knew if the dress was doable for me and if I wanted to buy the book. Very very helpful

Hey it’s Michelle from Annabelles email

Hi this is Michelle, Annabelle emailed me about helping you with your podcast but never heard back from you but great work on getting yours going. I moved platforms so if you ever need advice reach out I’ve been podcasting since December 2019 and I’ve seen and been through a lot. Like how to make money and platforms sponsors so on. You can ask Annabelle for my email and I am also a dress designer so we have a lot in common. Take care and great work again. Michelle Windle The Mums Lounge on Apple Podcast
