  • Tales Of A Fourth Generation Textile Executive: A Quilter’s Shangri-La In Utah

        On my most recent visit to Utah, I had the pleasure of seeing what I expect will be like a quilter’s Shangri-La….a heaven and haven for quilters alike. This Shangri-La is the brainchild of Leesa Clark-Millerberg from Thimbles and Threads. Her outside the box thinking could be the start of an interesting new phenomenon…..the Quilter’s Lodge.  This is a more or less a bed and breakfast for quilters.  To use an analogy, just think of all the amenities of a spa or bed and breakfast: massages, manicures, pedicures, facials, food, hair salon, etc. This state of the art high tech quilter’s lodge on the other hand will have: a…

  • Tales Of A Fourth Generation Textile Executive: Lucky, Under The Circumstances

    Last week I had the pleasure of traveling to Utah and Arizona to go on sales calls with the sales reps in those territories.  Like all my travels with sales reps, it was an enlightening learning experience. However, this blog isn’t about my sales visits, it is about the higher powers of luck.  As most of my blog followers know, I am not the most religious person, but on this trip someone was watching over me and the stars aligned as best as they could under some bad circumstances.  Tuesday night, I arrived at the Salt Lake City Airport about two hours prior to my flight.  I was hungry as…

  • Tales Of A Fourth Generation Textile Executive: Cheeky Pumpkins

    Dear Readers, I hope that you had a nice holiday weekend…whichever holiday you celebrated.  I had a lovely family celebration with 29 great people.  It is amazing how fast all the little ones are growing up…starting to make me feel old.  Kind of makes you want to take a step back to take it all in, but who has time for that?  Anyway, I am still pretty stuffed from all the delicious holiday foods.  I am so full that my brain is struggling to come up with a blog subject for this week (another great excuse).  In addition, I am exhausted from just writing my newest bi-weekly Food&Fabric blog (2 great excuses in one…
