  1. Love your podcasts! Thank you so much for the time. effort and dedication needed to do what you do. I was interested in everything you talked about in this podcast. I think that you mentioned a link to a Meghan Best video and her website and I could not find it in the show notes. I’m a brand new Pro-Stitcher user (haven’t turned it on yet so I guess I not really a user yet 🙂 ) and am SO interested in learning more about it. I Thank you for everything.
