Finally received some pics of the fun little pink number I created for one of my many lovely Aunt-in-laws. She showed me her dress while I was around in February and then I whipped up this little number for her in April. It was really fascinating working with sinamay, a material I had no experience and it turned out to be just right for this project. 

Excited to announce that I have purchased a new fascinator block! More wonderful little works of art to wear coming soon! In the meantime, check out this recent creation for my sister-in-laws stunning wedding across the pond:

It's finally happened! After years of swearing I'd find a new burgh to finally put down some roots I've relocated to the absolutely amazing city of Chicago!! With the offer of full-time employment in an art form I'm head over heels about (opera) how could I resist the opportunity to strike out and see more of this beautiful, expansive country? My husband and I are only celebrating a scant full month together here but already I feel like this is the bustling jungle for me. With the move and the change in gigs it seems I will finally have some more flexibility to spend time bringing to life all the crazy creations crowding my cranium. Keep an eye out for some exciting new pieces over the coming months and more blog posts showing project progress, teasers for ideas and more alliteration than a grown woman should find amusing.
