Well, I tweaked the design of my business cards and brochures (and intake forms and receipts, LOL) to be specific for tshirt quilts. And all that prep is to be ready for my first ad being placed - yikes! I'll be putting a quarter page ad in the band program that is distributed at IHSMA District contest here in October. I figure my target customer is one who doesn't quilt, so I've really aimed it at those folks who just want to give me their tshirts and write a check when the quilt is done.
I think I can complete two per month - that would give me 3/4 of a week to piece one, a week to quilt it (two weekends) and 2 days to bind it. I plan to accept 1 for October, 2 for November, and 1 for December. I may also offer 2 slots to have their top pieced in time to give as a Christmas gift, but they'll return it to me afterwards for quilting. And then it will be all out, two a month hopefully :)
I'll try to find a way to scan and post them :) For now, good thoughts!!
