Margaux Goes on Spring Vacation-2

Margaux Goes on Spring Vacation-2
Despite the snow in Portland yesterday, all the cherry trees 
are starting to bloom.  I'm often inspired by colors found in 
nature, and I like the soft and gentleness of petal pink cherry 
blossoms.

Wavy Hair


I'm liking this hairstyle today--the chunky bangs and wavy hair.

iPad Envelope Giveaway

The iPad Envelope is an idea that I've had for awhile, and it's satisfying to see dreams become a reality.  This envelope is sentimental in that I created the patterns and sewed the sample prototypes. I usually have the help of professional pattern makers, but I thought it would be fun to learn the process from conception to product.  I had originally designed the envelope to be in Lap Mode seen here:


Then one night (possibly in slight delirium from sewing too late), I realized that this iPad Envelope can also stand up in Movie/Facetime Mode.  I think this feature is pretty cool--versatile and functional, not to mention it's also in the top selling fabric that I managed to get the last roll of.

Margaux Goes to Work-8

Margaux Goes to Work-8

 
Red is a great color, in small doses.  Too much of it can be 
overwhelming, but key pieces of red accesories, like a bag or shoes
can make a work outfit instantly eye catching and interesting
in a subtle way.
