I love Little Green Bean and this was wonderful to hear her story. Thanks for another great interview Misty! ❤

[@aliciaswafford338]

Loved hearing all about the beginning of the Little Green Bean

[@lenawilkinson7541]

Thank you both for this interview! Hearing the history of Missy’s business is so inspirational. I could have listened to an interview that was twice as long!

[@craftapaloozadesigns]

Missy is so inspiring and an awesome, generous soul! ❤🎉 so good to see this.

Loved listening to how Missy got started. Very inspirational! And thank you to MSQC for this series. I look forward to listening to more and can’t wait to come to Hamilton some day!

[@marcyhawley1007]

Wonderful interview!! Missy comes across as very relatable. I always enjoy watching her on Instagram and all of the wonderful ideas she comes up with.

[@tammyingle233]

I love Keith Urban as well! I am loving this interview. Thanks Misty!!

[@laurag8641]

That was a great interview! Fun to hear how Missy got started and I was nodding when she said she made so many of one thing she got burnt out from it! That happens, probably to a lot of sewers at one time or another. Thank you for sharing!

[@maryannsawyer2429]

Two of some of my favorites! Loved hearing about Missy's beginnings! I love this new show! It is fun to learn about people in the Biz and how they got started! Thank you!

I discovered little Green Bean on Instagram so I was excited to see this interview with her. I love Misty and really enjoy this new series. I would love to see Misty tell her story some day.

[@candaces468]

I have followed Missy for over ten years. She has inspired me so much over the years. Thanks for a great interview! And for the trolls: we sew, we aren’t producers. This is a great interview! I really enjoyed it.

I love knowing the backstory of a creative person :). Looking forward to the next video … and, a Part two! Two very creative individuals!! Love it!! 💛🌻💛

[@sweetcountrylivinginmichigan]

Really enjoyed this! Great interview. ❤

[@dorisr2832]

Would be nice to see samples of your guests' work/products...a Show 'n Tell, as it were.

[@fittoseejane]

I agree, even a few inset pictures would help tell the story.

[@sharonparker7867]

Such a fun interview getting to know Missy from The Little Green Bean. ❤

[@tearose3763]

Have enjoyed following the little green bean, great interview👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

Missy is the best and we're so honored that she joined us in this latest episode of Homespun. Thanks for tuning in and enjoying this with us!

[@fittoseejane]

Misty, I love these episodes. I missed this one so I’m catching up. I loved the question of if you could sit down with someone from history. I think an interesting question for future interviews would be ‘How did creativity show up for you as a child?’ Or ‘Were you creative as a child and how does that relate to what you do today?’ Thanks for the great videos!

[@kassiewelch8205]

Two favorites!! Great episode.

Love Missy and her story is inspiring ❤

[@MissouriQuiltCo]

Missy is such an inspiration to every maker out there and we feel so blessed that we have the honor to know her!

[@mandyhawkins63]

Love your Homespun interviews Misty. I'd love you to interview Alison Harris from Cluck Cluck Sew.

[@amyfrantz2226]

These Homespun interviews are so inspiring! Thank you both! One suggestion...I love the format of you both talking to each other...very casual and friendly. 😊 The camera angle...could we see more of your faces? Like we see the side of your faces mostly as you talk...could the cameras move just a bit to see you both better, while you talk to each other? 😊

[@sabrinabuoniconti5008]

Really enjoyed this talk and leatned alot. Would have loved to see pictures of her pass products. I would like to see a link of Quilting with kate too. Thx

[@robertacaruthers7568]

❤. Hearing about all that's involved with starting a business is truly still scary to me. Maybe if I was younger... Kudos to those who do.

[@tonyabrown8856]

Great interview Missy. Love your story. 🧵🪡💜

[@susancook3417]

Great interview!

[@debmac53]

Great interview! So interesting!❤

[@blairseibert1778]

It would be so great to see examples of the interview guests work during the interview. Hang examples their work on the wall behind them, plasce on the tables. Etc. We fiber artists are visual people!

[@Sylvia907]

Good interview thank you

[@FleurdeLinda.Stitches]

It would be nice to know who and what she does at the beginning of the interview. No clue what her business is.

[@amandaaskew7606]

Misty's intro says she is "Missy Luukken from The Little Green Bean". I'm assuming that is her business.

[@hmneill]

I have a Keith Urban story…around 2008,2009 I was living in Pasadena CA, and my friend told me about a free show happening in a Verizon parking lot (random I know, but i think they were sponsoring his tour or something). anyway, it was Keith Urban and given the small crowd size he engaged with us in a really cool way. He noticed a kid in the crowd with a guitar, he was about 12 years old, and he pulled him up on stage and asked what songs he knew and they jammed together for several songs. That kid had the time of his life and it was really cool to see, he does seem like a great, down to earth guy. ❤

[@leilanispeck2655]

Enjoying the interview, but would’ve liked for her to have introduced who she was, what she did, etc. I would’ve liked to have had you both turned more to the front. I did not enjoy only seeing your profiles. Pictures of her products would have been nice too. I hope these comments are being read and change’s made. With that said, I love your shows and I love Missouri Star ♥️💐

[@debbieparrish4369]

I agree on not seeing a better position. I think the cameras need placing on more over the shoulder. It would help for those who lip read. Great interviews, Misty. You're a natural and it makes easy to watch. Thank you ladies.❤

[@terrycuozzo5260]

They have several of her products linked in the description box.

[@CoalNovah1285]

Camera 🎥 work needs work! You can only see half her face! 🙄

[@laurahook7509]

That is more of a person placement issue, not the camera man.

[@blairseibert1778]

Would love it if we could see the guest's face straight on so it feels more like she's talking to me.

[@melindaadams6520]

B roll would have made this worthy story interesting.

[@lonejakobsen1]

terrible terrible camera skills, no movement and only still shots... Why ?
