On Let’s talk business tonight:

All small business owners are trying to find their niche and build a loyal customer base, but one Northern suburbs business has done that and more, it’s become a community hub drawing people from all over the city, and the state! Janet Collins started her Wangara quilting shop, From the First Stitch to the Last, two years ago with her sister and two friends not sure it would work out, but it’s gone from strength to strength. She’s here to talk about building a community around her business, and turning her passion into a job.
