Bailey Education Check me out and stay awhile.I first constructed this webpage as a direction for myself. A collection of tip and tricks by longarm quilters. From time to time I will update the site and add to the Educational folder as I go..... As a side note I have tagged each post but it is not always an exact science, if it doesn't appear in the search bar snoop at the posts please and thank you

Are you an on line junkie who can create your own website?
How will you advertise?

Do you know how to write up a business plan and how to follow it?
Are you curious enough to do your research, contact gov't bodies for funding, try out free diy website creation
