What It's About
An update from an artist creating one-of-a-kind handmade, sewn items.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1972
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. Recently, we’ve featured a Boise woodworker, the founder of an ecommerce brand that sells gear for outdoor hockey, and a guy who leads pizza tours in Chicago. Last week, we heard from the founder of QD Foodie, a kitchen tool collection that makes cooking fun. Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Roula Rallis, a New Hampshire fabric artist. She’s an IT manager by day working in an analytical field, and by night or weekend or other times she’s built her business Sewcialite, which sells all kinds of beautiful handmade, sewn items. What’s happened in the past three years since we first told Roula’s story?MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
