The Silver Lining for our family in 2020 has been the addition of our daughter’s husband to our family in March. The Silver Lining for our business in 2020 is the addition of new customers that we now consider part of the Autoworks family.

Life has been more of an uphill battle than normal. I’m a believer that “adversity reveals character”. We all have an opportunity to be a better version of ourselves after we get through this and our character should be better for it.

In 2020, Journey’s customers have shown up for us in a huge way. By supporting our business, they have let us know that a locally-owned quilt shop in their community is really important. We are so blessed to help our customers celebrate their families’ memories while looking forward to a brighter future.

Even in a year like 2020, I’ve found several silver linings. I’ve seen creativity flow more freely, people around me prioritize personal joys such as family and discoveries of new hobbies or more time to revisit old ones.

During a Global pandemic, I was able to discover my dream job. Despite these difficult times, I’m thankful to be able to turn that dream into reality as an independent distributor for Pepperidge Farm.

2020 has made me be more aware and thankful for things we sometimes take for granted: the health and love of my family, staying employed, the encouragement of friends, the ability to work from home, and activities in nature.
