It’s fun to dress for cooking. We dress for so many occasions, including work, it makes sense to dress for cooking. If you plan to bury yourself deep into an activity, preparation allows you to more fully embrace the occasion. Whether it be a day of canning, or a day of multiple lasagnas for freezing, the right apron helps you…

News Update
This is one of those times when I blog simply to update everyone. It feels a bit lame to not include pictures and links. End of year brings responsibilities like inventory, accounting, and the like. It takes up time. At the same time, it also brings a season of quiet thoughtfulness. And it is in this state of mind, that…

Plus Size Women
I love them. I do. Not only am I one, but the entire process of designing for plus size challenges me and quite frankly, challenges are so satisfying and so much fun! I am well aware that there is a grading system for enlarging patterns. I should design for a lovely size 8 and then grade up. I will not…

Where the heck is the Blue Denim?
Our Blue Denim has been on vacation from the studio, not really, our supplier suddenly had a bump in its path and we went without Blue Denim for a few months. Oh sure, we had black Denim and with whimsy and hope, we tried a new light blue Denim. Customers actually embraced the light blue version. We included it in the photoshoot and…
Accepting the things you cannot change
I love this prayer, I recite it when it is me that has to do the computer work. I know, I’m being dramatic but I find working on the website similar to arguing with a log. And because the log weighs more, even pounding on it, won’t help me. Recently, I had the joyful assignment of adding more product options.…

Labelless Aprons
Is labelless a word? I bet not. It has probably evolved from my skill of dissecting the english language. I tend to transform it into my very own, born out of a desperate attempt to find the perfect word to describe feelings that I fail to verbalize. That aside, a fact awaits discusssion. Our Aprons are leaving the studio, nicely packaged, content label in…
Apron Styles
We can think up ideas all day long, we can ask customers what they want, and what they think. But nothing tells us more what customers want than sales. We learn when they dip low, or soar high. Recently, we changed our categories of Apron styles on the website. We shrunk them down and minimized things. Apron styles are more…

Categorically Speaking
The website is being altered bit by bit, you may or may not notice. Although we planned a slight design upgrade, we also had some work to do for regarding the categories on the top link bar. We have been devoted to online only for awhile now and have learned what you want in this venue as compared to others.…

Flour Sack Dishtowels
I have searched for towels. I have tried waffle to linen and back again. I have washed, tested, soiled, played in mud and quite frankly nothing impressed me very much. I always ended up back to paper towels. Some towels look great hanging in the kitchen. And in the beginning, I had thought to buy a towel that we could…
Finally Spring….
Some winters last longer than others. This past one had me worrying that the weather had changed forever. The cold would not stop. I resigned myself that the warmth would never come. It did come. But I still feel worried. I took pictures of the buds, just case the snow falls again and they die. I think my sarcasm blossomed…
