In this episode of Quilting on the Side, Andi and Tori discuss the ins and outs of presenting at quilt guilds. They cover the definition and purpose of quilt guilds, how to get started with presentations, the importance of networking, and the differences between trunk shows and technique lectures. 

The conversation also delves into pricing strategies, the necessity of contracts, and how to sell your work without overshadowing the educational aspect of your presentation. Tori shares insights from her book, Workshops Unleashed, providing valuable tips for both new and experienced presenters.
