She sure knew how to wear a hat. Check out this collection and her advice! We have lost a beautiful hat ambassador and by all accounts, a beautiful person inside and out. I just love this video she posted about 5 years ago. RIP Diane Keaton.

Working on a new digital sewing pattern for my Newsboy/Poor boy Cap design and testing sizes! Hubby says the fit is almost perfect. A few tweaks left to go .... Did you know we have 18 digital hat sewing patterns already on our website and Etsy shop? We have 4 more including this one in the works right now! My almost 40 year career as a milliner/hat designer is being shared with the world and it brings me such joy to see my original patterns/designs being made by sewers all around the world. Check out our YouTube channel also called Mad Cap Hats to learn more!

What an absolute pleasure it has been to teach our oldest granddaughter who is 14 ... to sew! She is planning a future in textiles and design and made the art and the pillow during her visit here from the UK. I used Canva for help with my bear in a canoe design and she used her own talent to create the four "stamps" on her pillow which she sewed! Her illustrations celebrate all the little creatures she has met in Canada. Her favorite are the Firefly's which have been abundant during her visit. We are so proud of her. More to come on how we transferred our art on to the canvas!
