Dupioni Dreams

I am obsessed with silk dupioni lately. I was lucky enough to find a lovely lady on etsy to make the girls smocked dresses to wear at an upcoming wedding. Miss Darcy is going to make a smocked bishop for L. and a smocked waisted dress for M. The color of the dupioni is called Juniper and I absolutely love it. It's a beautiful combination of sea water and blue sky. I bought my dress for the same wedding-- it's also dupioni- in a shade called Bordeaux. And, I've been finding the prettiest accessories made of silk dupioni- pillows, purses, little girl dresses, ascots...and a just bought a yard to make baby slippers....

Website New and Live

AFter hemming and hawing- and making excuses for months I finally redid my website. It's much easier to use- customers can now choose the attributes (personalization) for their orders. There were many late nights-- and some overnights- spent working on it. It's 90% finished. I still need to add some product descriptions, change out the ribbons and fabrics pages- and a couple of other housekeeping items-- but for the most part it's finished and I'm thrilled.
