At age 24 she considered leaving the design industry, being concerned about her security and not being able to maintain her long term goal for her future. She was introduced to Murray Workman, of Textile Design in 1980. Murray had been in the woven industry for nearly 50 years representing mostly the mens woven industry. Upon joining Murray, Lily brought with her the expertise of prints, expanding the business to a more complete design resource library. In 1983, they became business partners. When Murray retired in 1993, Lily bought the business becoming sole owner, of now incorporated company Textile Creations by Lily.
