Wonderful you have joined me in Hat Academy, Diane. I hope you find it inspiring - there are some amazing Milliners out there. The site has not officially launched and still adding to it but received 40,000+ hits in August.

I am learning so much culturally, every country has their particular styling. Had a Canadian milliner thanking me for setting up site and made comment about how creative Australian milliners are. My real desire is to share skills with those who are isolated so this is keeping me busy along with teaching with Qld Museum and making Melb Cup pieces. I am an exhibitor at a Women's Expo next week also. At some stage I would be happy to do a blog on MAA if that would be helpful. Appreciate your emails as we can feel isolated as Milliners especially when we are a home based business.

Have a great Spring Racing Season, Elaine
