Thank you for your post. Ms. Vanilla Beane was my husband's Great-Aunt and the reason why I joined Hat Academy. One of her sisters was a talented seamstress, and I gravitated towards her because of my love of sewing. After she passed, I tried my hand at millinery. My goal is to become at least half the woman she was. She will be truly missed.
