Hey - Hats Cool!


I did my millinery course over the weekend. Seriously, when it rains it pours. Right now it's bucketing down in Sydney, but I wasn't referring to that.

In one week we:

- moved house
- caught up with a good friend from London
- celebrated Matt's birthday
- celebrated the Doctor's birthday
- I went to my millinery course

Sheesh. And then there are other weeks I am so bored with myself it kills me!

Anyway, if anyone in Sydney is looking for an excellent millinery course for beginners, Jane Stoddart is amazing. She is one of those naturally talented people who is more than happy to share her wealth of knowledge. I loved this course, and left on Sunday afternoon on a high. We learnt so much about couture techniques in millinery, and I am itching to head back to learn more. I'll share some shots of my hats in progress in the next few days. I am pretty darn excited by them!

Sounds awesome!!
And crazy busy.
And if you were at the post office today and some stranger walking in smiled at you as if she knew you then that was me. I only realised that I didn't actually know you after you'd left but my in-the-neighbourhood-that-person-looks-familiar smile reflex kicked in.
a) I hope I didn't freak you out and
b) if it wasn't you then who the heck was it?!

Woho! You know how to pack em.
I'm very excited about seeing your hats, and I'm so pleased the course was good
But I'm mostly happy just to hear your voice. xo

Excitement! What a brilliant, left-field notion...millinery. I bet you turn out to be an absolute genius... just my hunch.

Can't wait to see the creations. I'm a hat lover from way back.

It's all happening in PMM land. so glad to hear that the wheel is on the up-swing for you guys.
