YIPEE What a great show

I met my long time high school girlfriend up at the Island this last weekend, Put-In-Bay, Ohio. She is a wonderful artist, becoming quite accomplished. We set up next to each other for their annual Art In The Park Art Show. It was loads of fun and very rewarding in many ways. My friend Marsha, and I got to spend the weekend together at her parents place. She lives in Pensacola Florida so we don't get to see each other but twice a year. Friendships are so very important and they become more and more valuable as we become older.
Reminds me of another quip:
We are no longer passing through the world, but digging deep and collecting moments.

Margaret Thatcher once said

"I am extraordinarily patient, as long as I get my own way in the end". I love that and agree!

Quips and wisdom's from bonni

Nostalgia is a slow dance in a large circle. Memories don't organize themselves chronologically, they're like smoke, changing, moving, fading.

Glamour Girl Robes by the Millions

A Glamour Girl robe is a vintage style robe made similar to a 1940's dress. Made of chenille fabric, sometimes made from bedspreads in a past life. this makes them very unique. I also make them of fleece for winter and light weight stretch satin in floral prints for warm weather. The fitted style with the tie front is the most popular style but I also make a swing coat style too.

Photo shoot with Alice

Hello friends, I recently completed a very detailed and fun custom order. Alice wears them well. I'll be starting on new projects very soon.

Making something from nothing

Hello friends, The last two days I have been babysitting my grandchildren. Loads of fun,in fact 3 years ago when my first grandaughter was born my "Sweetiepie Originals" childrens clothing line was also born. It is so fun creating these unique little girl styles; dresses, sweaters & jackets. I'm always refashioning from adult sweaters. They give me enough yardage to make one childs jacket or sweater and possibly something for an adult too. These two piles of sweaters are just the tip of the iceburg from my resorces for designing.

I have a FREE Day

I'm going to sew ALL day. Hello friends, I feel like I'm writing letters which I really love to do. Today I plan on finishing several of those robes. I'm getting ready for a big show up at the Island of Lake Erie, Put-In-Bay, Ohio. Marsha, my long time girlfriend from high school will be joining me up there. She lives in Florida now, I miss her. Her parents have a wonderful island retreat there for 50 years now, WOW. It's peaceful and grand. We used to sneak up there with our boyfriends back in the 60's and bumb around. We weren't too naughty, just enough!
