I am so excited to share this episode with all of you!  I have now been producing this podcast for one year!  And 54 episodes and 52,000 downloads later, I'm still excited and happy to be bringing it to you every week.

To celebrate, I asked my first three guests to come back on and answer some of the questions I added after I had interviewed them.  To do this, I had to relisten to the first three episodes, and I enjoyed hearing from Susan Woodcock, Michele Williams, and Donna Cash.  

So listen in as I ask them the questions my newer guests have been tortured with!

I made the podcast into two separate podcasts because aparently, I have added more questions than I realized!

You can find Susan Woodcock at Home Dec Gal and on Facebook and her find out more about her newest venture; Workroom Tech!

Susan’s publishing credits include Sewing Custom Curtains, Shades and Top Treatments (Singer, 2016).
