About Audrey Zohner
Expertise
I am an expert rag quilter. I have made over 100 rag quilts and would love to assist others with questions and methods. I don't know much about actual quilting like machine or hand quilting or applique. I am, however, the resident expert on rag quilting in my town. If you want to make a rag quilt, I am your woman.

Experience
I have been sewing for 12 years and rag quilting for 4. I have experienced just about every pitfall there is in rag quilting. Check out my quilts at audreysragquilts.etsy.com.

Question
QUESTION: Hi,

I am not a sewer but need advice from someone who is. I recently opened up my own fabric shop online. I was wondering if you could take a look at it and give a critique from the eyes of someone who sews. Please tell me what is good (if anything) and what is bad.

This is a last resort. I am pretty much ready to close up shop but thought I might ask for help before I do it. Thanks!


ANSWER: I can look for you.  I just need the site name/address.  Thanks.

Answer
Hello,

First of all, your shop announcement is way too long.  It would be better to have a short welcome and then a few sentences directing them to your profile for shipping and insurance and custom order information.  You can put all that in your profile and make your opening store front page much more organized and better looking.  Everything else looks great.  I love your banner, you have great sections, a cute avatar, reasonable prices and interesting items.  

If you want more critiques, check out the forums on etsy.  I have a shop: audreysragquilts.etsy.com and when I first started out, I asked for advice in the forums and got a ton that really helped.  Try them out!

Hope this helps.  Thanks!
