In 2008 Doan and her family started Missouri Star Quilt Company and began producing weekly tutorials on YouTube. The company was started with a sewing machine in a dilapidated brick building in downtown Hamilton, Missouri serving as a shop.
Today Missouri Star Quilt Company gets 30,000 orders a month for pre-cut patches and other quilting supplies, and has become the second-largest employer in Hamilton. The company also operates a "sleep and sew" retreat hotel for tourists, which was built in 2013 by knocking down walls of two adjacent building to the shop. 〔http://www.kshb.com/news/state/missouri/missouri-star-quilting-companys-success-helps-revitalize-downtown-hamilton〕 Hamilton, with a population of eighteen hundred, hosts between five and ten thousand visitors every month who come to meet Doan. 〔https://www.yahoo.com/makers/is-this-woman-the-worlds-most-famous-quilter-114977797565.html〕 According to Doan, the company’s appeal is based on making it easy to quilt. Visitors are taught how to use pre-cut flying geese or Jelly roll race. It takes as little as a day, instead of the usual months, to make a quilt when using pre-cut fabric.〔http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702303277704579349133544709954〕
