I'm very new in the quilt industry business so for me - yes. I find I have to really dig in to focus and not be distracted by what I think are 'shiny' things that I'm not doing, could be doing or comparing to what others in the industry are doing. So for me focus is head down and create, build pattern experience, build industry connections (whilst living in one of the most remote cities in the world so travel is LONG and far usually!). I have a limited time to turn this into a sustainable business (when I say limited, it's limited by my partners patience financially and being with a creative can be challenging).
