A lovely customer who purchased this Madeline headband from Lilliput hats in Toronto sent me this photo. So nice to know that my hat is living a life of adventure and travelling the world. (and on a camel)

Hankies in the Wind

April 12, 2010

Just got a new shipment of vintage hankies. I washed them and hung them up to dry on my neighbour’s line since we don’t have one yet. The prettiest site I saw today.

Drum Roll Please
