PERMISSION TO WEAR A CUTE HAT
My flower pots have returned from a long nap, the weather is a balmy 71 degrees and the garden shops are bursting at the seams with color…Sooo, why am I not bubbling with the same outta control planting enthusiasm as so many other years before? Hmmm…let’s find out together because I’d really like to know, too…not even kidding.

Right Time or the Right Place?
Both. Being at the right place at the right time is all in how a person may want to perceive a situation. Recently, I encountered just this and although I could’ve scoffed, complained, judged, turned a blind eye…I didn’t. I decided to not fear it, not judge it and not read into it – I just simply said to myself – no matter what happens in life, “life” is going to find me and teach me a lesson or two in humanity.
I hope this finds you well today and everyday.
Bound to be….seeing you on Friday!
Although the fabrics I work with everyday scream F.U.N. I’m also reminded this time of year that I am so blessed that I consider my work playtime. Of course there are days that feel like I’m actually “working” but recently it feels a lot like playing, not only the fabrics but the mood of my shop (perhaps it’s because tax season is over and the snow is gone). Take a peek at what I’ve been making the last few weeks in preparation for an upcoming show. More info about the show in a minute because BEFORE I FORGET, you MY PEEPS need to head to my website to snag what’s left because ——->

Shedding some light today into the world of curves, from my personal perspective. Having curves is all relative and we need not worry as to where they are, why they are and how we might go crazy trying to get rid of them.

Also, ever wonder what it takes to photograph those hats on my website? The angles, the lighting, the outfit(s) are all carefully considered through a manicured process of a few simple things – a wave of impulse, a good hair day, an overcast sky and a lot of bloopers! In this post my husband masquerades as a photographer and I gladly embrace his masquerading – because my photography daughter was unavailable. Read on to experience a mix of photo bloopers and their respective handmade hat that got them there in the first place.

As the New Year begins, the Christmas tree and its accomplices were swiftly put away as quickly as they were put up. There are minor remnants of red tinsel lurking on the steps, resting under foyer rugs and even finding refuge on the dog. These glistening reminders shimmer boldly in protest as if refusing to believe the holidays are long gone. As I walk by them I hear their faint sounds of peace, love and joy.
