You are loving “Jenny Eliza”

We are so smitten with this line and can’t thank you enough for creating all the beauty we are seeing on social media and we can’t say enough thank yous for all you do.  You enrich our lives with the items you create and inspire all of us with your unique eye!! So many talents so many gifts and we are struck dumb everyday with the multitude of  ideas.  We love Jenny Eliza and see that you love it also. Currently this line is selling at JoAnns and we couldn’t be more pleased with the Launch.  Their website has to keep replenishing the goods and that’s never a bad thing!!!  Please feel free to buy online.  So we had our wonderful photographer friend Tim Geaney (photographer to the stars) take some whimsy so you can see the breathtaking quality of these fabrics for themselves. red meghan hint jimbo sissy katie shore IMG_8088

A Great Year Ahead

Who wants classes???  Right here in my studio I am thinking about hosting small groups.  To make and create, to build lasting friendships and inspire!!  Are you in??? Then of course we may also do online videos. So much to think about.  I am pumped, Carla is pumped and so is Madeline!!!!!  This is going to be the year to remember. 2013 we are coming and we are expectant!!  Let goodness rain down upon us all!

 

 

Sequins and Felt

So here’s what’s shaking at my place.  As you know this is one of my very favorite things to do and I am having a ball with creating some stockings for next year.  Yes all year long I work on handcrafted Christmas.  I have come to a big decision that Sis Boom will only do a show at Christmas and email sales throughout the year so if we have your email you will be notified of sales in Ct.  Life is good, busy, hectic and in order for me to keep pace I’ve decided one big show is better than trying to hand create for two shows.  I hope you’ll join us at Christmas for this big extravaganza!!! I hope your year is off to a great start!!!! I have designed several lines of fabric so be watching for them.  Happy Land is next after Super Fly so be watching!!!! xoxoxoxo
