Even the busiest quilting businesses hit a quiet patch now and then - whether it’s the time of year, a lull between bookings, or just life doing its thing. In this episode, I’m sharing what I actually do behind the scenes when things slow down in the studio.

From tidying up and tuning your machine to reconnecting with clients and giving yourself permission to rest (yes, really!), I’ll walk you through five simple ways to use the time without stressing. Plus, if you’re ready to upskill while things are quiet, I’ll tell you all about my course Bordering on Brilliance where you could use the extra time to learn 17 practical and beautiful border and sashing designs.

This episode is extra special—it's my very first guest interview! I sat down with Jennifer Moore from WonderFil Australia for a deep dive into the world of thread, and wow, did we cover some ground. Jen shared her journey into the textile industry, what it’s like managing a warehouse full of thread here in Australia, and why WonderFil offers so many options for both longarm and domestic quilters.

We talked about everything from needle sizes and bobbin choices to experimenting with metallics and rayon (yes, even in the bobbin!). Jen also gave us a peek into her own creative business, Aster & Anne, where she makes pre-cut felt kits perfect for applique and embellishing.

If you’ve ever wondered which thread weight to use, how to avoid thread breaks, or whether it’s okay to mix weights top and bottom—this chat is for you.
