Your quilting business sidekick — so you can focus on creating

Specialized virtual assistance for pattern designers, shop owners, and creatives.

Doing everything yourself is slowing you down

From pattern testing to scheduling posts, running a quilting business takes more than creativity. Quilty Sidekick takes on the tech and admin, so you have more time to design, sew, and grow.

Why choose Quilty Sidekick?

As a quilter myself, I understand the work behind every pattern, blog post, and product listing. I created Quilty Sidekick to give designers and shop owners a reliable hand with the business side — so you can stay focused on creating, not juggling tech or to-do lists. I offer support with pattern editing, blog writing, social content, video editing, and ghostwriting digital pantographs.

"After struggling with my previous web designer, I found Kelly, who stepped in and beautifully revitalised my existing Divi Wordpress website https://www.allanaturalla.com.au. She corrected misdirected social media icons and ensured everything was up-to-date. Categories and groups are now perfectly aligned on the correct pages.

We discussed my brand, and Kelly redesigned my logo to truly reflect my personality and align with my brand colours. She also added the legal pages, terms and conditions, and privacy policy, and transformed the copywriting to be more client-centric.

The result is a website that not only looks fantastic but also resonates more effectively with my clients. I couldn't be happier with the transformation and the professionalism Kelly brought to the project.

Kelly demonstrated that no job is too big or too small; she was willing to make the necessary tweaks that others overlooked, offering solutions where most were only interested in a complete overhaul. Her ability to address both minor adjustments and major redesigns without skipping a beat was exactly what I needed." Sue
