Profile Information

I Love Hats Because?: They can be so many things and show so many sides of your personality. I've always worn hats and I adore them. The more the merrier. I've been told I look pretty, darn good in hats.

About Me: I'm a mom to a grown son and a wife to my husband for 33 years. I grew up sewing and made wedding gowns for brides for several years. I make all of my own wardrobe. I also am a jewelry designer and have a shop on Etsy called Sparrow & Bellflower.
