Great success

The Palm Beach Ink launch party was a great success. Mary and Britton have such amazing stationery and are a joy to work with--great personal attention to detail. The holidays will be here before you know it. Go to their site and order your holiday cards now! Congratulations to Amy Hilzenrath for being the winner of the drawing for a Preppy Goose dress.

I'm in love with the latest Preppy Goose dress. It's reversible! I can totally imagine my little gosling wearing it with the dots showing in the morning and then wanting to switch to the gothic flower later in the day. It's great for those of you who have children like mine....they want to change their clothes about five times a day.

The Preppy Goose's story

I saw a little girl wearing a cute dress one day and thought to myself, "Hey, I can make that." The next thing I knew I was at the fabric store buying fabric and ribbon. A few hours later, my little gosling had her own pillowcase dress. She wore it to church and got lots of compliments. She wore it to school--again with the compliments. I began getting requests for dresses from my girlfriends.

Here is our little gossling in her favorite--Go Gators!--pillowcase dress:



Just as I was beginning to make custom dresses for friends, tragedy struck one of my friends (and the director of our goslings' preschool). She lost her husband and father-in-law in a fishing accident. Please see The Palm Beach Post article for more information. Almost on the spot, I decided that I would start making the dresses in earnest and donate the proceeds* to her........ The Preppy Goose was born.

Buy a dress for a great cause!

*(50% of proceeds of all purchases will be donated to Reed's Needs from now until the end of the year)
