New Website

Hurray.  I just launched my new website.  Please have a look around my clean, easy to navigate site at www.mtashvt.com.  You can sign up for my mailing list by scrolling down the front page.  I'll be tweaking and adding new one-of-a-kind and limited edition items so stay tuned.  Meanwhile you can see where I'll be selling live and in person by clicking on the Vending Schedule link on the right hand sidebar right here on this page.

Rich and Vibrant

I have been loving working with these rich and vibrant prints.  Today I am at the Norwich Farmers Market from 10-1 with the first of my new line of a-line wrap skirts.  I took these pictured of the rack of size S/M in my workshop yesterday so you can see the sashes and trim I created from locally thrifted button down shirts.

They set off the new designer fabrics of the skirts quite nicely I think.  Come see for yourself.

Get a Jump on Spring

After weeks and weeks of preparation and sewing, I will be offering for sale the first skirts from my 2013 line tomorrow!  

Come to the Norwich Farmers Market at Tracy Hall in downtown Norwich between 10am and 1pm.  Here are some previews from the size M/L rack.  I'll post pictures from the S/M rack tomorrow.  Enjoy!

Spring is coming!

This skirt has been featured in three treasuries on Etsy in the last four days.  I think folks must have spring and associated fresh colors on the brain.  Here in Vermont we are hunkering down for a big snow storm.  The white stuff is coming down light and fluffy, great for skiing and riding, but I hear the local rope tow can't host the annual snowmobile climb as scheduled for lack of a solid base.  Maybe later this winter.  

Meanwhile, here are more pictures to make you think of spring, if you are so inclined.  The prints I'm using for my 2013 line are pictured in the previous post.  The new line will be ready in mid March! 

Cute and feminine kitchen aprons are for all seasons.  Here are a couple that feature friendly retro beach dwellers at your hip, and tie in big flirty bows in the back.

Welcome to 2013

Here is the sneak preview of my 2013 line of Perfect Fit Wrap Skirts.  These are many of the new designer fabrics I have chosen for this year, with prints appropriate for a variety of setting where work and pleasure take place.  I've been frequenting the local thrift stores and collecting mint-condition button down shirts to transform into sashes.  Shirt collars and cuffs will trim many of these in my signature fashion.  

You can view them up close and place an advance order at the Norwich Farmers Market at Tracy Hall this winter.  Winter market dates are January 12, February 9, March 9 and April 13.  The new line of skirts will be available by the end of March and throughout the spring and summer.  Meanwhile, you can purchase ready-to-ship skirts from my Etsy shop, including many on clearance.  Out with the old, in with the new!
