Parc Days..

These are the days that make me love Montreal, and my life here...


Days like this, make it really hard to focus on work.

I am currently looking for retailers to sell Little Houses in the New York, Boston, Philly area... if anyone could give me some tips on some great stores in that area, I would really appreciate it!

Here are a few pics from the recent photo shoot with photographer Mike Chui


It's a really rainy Sunday today, so I think I will focus completely on work.

Luvstory Sweater

Yet another sweater for fall :)

I'm quickly realizing that I am almost exclusively a sweater and jacket designer!

I suppose because sweaters and jackets tend to be my favorite thing to wear...

The newest addition to the Fall line is:

The Luvstory Sweater

My favorite model has been visiting the homeland of PEI for the past 7 weeks... it's so great to have her back!

A heads up to all you Montrealers out there... I will finally be selling at a store locally! It is located in Old Montreal on St-Pierre & St-Paul Ouest, called Gallery Zone Orange.

They will be stocked with Little Houses as of the first week of August :)

Goldsboro Jacket

I posted this sweater here the other day but it wasn't posted in my shop yet...
I have named it and it is now for sale in the shop....

The Augustine Sweater:


I have already posted the Goldsboro Jacket, but I really didn't like the photos... so here it is again, new and improved photo's by Mike Chui



I purchased this bike a few weeks ago for $20. Duncan and I took it apart, painted it, got some new bits and pieces for it... and voila! I'm in love with it now!

I think I will go for a ride right now....

Fall in the works...

It's been a bit of a sweat shop around the studio lately, I am frantically working on an order that is going to Japan, as well as trying to get my fall line finished... I just did some really long days and managed to get almost the entire order finished for Japan, and a few new things for fall...

My friend Mike and I went out and did a mini photo shoot of some new and old Little Houses stuff, he has sent me the first couple photos, here is a new sweater from the Fall 09 line.

I haven't even named it yet, or posted it for sale...


I will post more as they come... hopefully the fall line with actually be finished before fall arrives!

:)

My friend send me this link to a Polaroid application, you can make your existing photo's look like old polaroids... I love it! Download it here




My husbands parents were here last week visiting, and the lovely Susan helped me finally spruce up my deck! I love it now...I plan to spend a lot of time out there this summer... if the summer ever makes it here!



So great... my new little sanctuary ...

Prince Edward Island

Duncan, Olive and I recently had a mini vacation to PEI.. it was my first time there and I totally fell in love with it. I can't remember the last time I left the honking horns and loud sirens of the city, to only hear the sound of the ocean every morning. It felt good. I really, really needed it.

My morning view.. a little different from St. Denis....

Our humble abode for 4 days...

Coffee's on the beach! Being here made me really miss the Ocean...

There was a whole lot of wholesome visits with the locals, fresh seafood, growlers, and walks on the beach... I could totally get used to this.

It was short but well worth it. Now it's back to fast paced city life and work, work, work!

To the sewing machine...

About Me

My photo
I love using my hands, I love making stuff and I love surrounding myself with people who love making stuff. I have a major sweet tooth and my favorite part of the day is teatime.
