On today’s episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast we're talking about running an online fabric shop with my guest, Lindsay Prezzano. Lindsay and her husband, Charlie, are the founders and co-owners of Hawthorne Threads.
Hawthorne Threads is an online fabric shop offering a vast selection of curated contemporary fabric collections, patterns, and thread for the modern sewer. Lindsay and Charlie are also digitally printing their own fabric line, sold exclusively on the site. What began as an Etsy business is now a thriving company with 30 employees and a warehouse. Lindsay's story is truly inspirational.
Visit Hawthorne Threads online.
