It's All In The Way You See It...

Playing with new camera angles for the product shots as we prepare for the JoeysCoat growth spurt coming this Fall...looks pretty good on this size medium Traditional Joey in black and white dogtooth tweed with rayon stripe binding, French turn-of-the-century metallic embroidered trim, marbleized plastic buckle and celluloid buttons. 





Love this coat...

V-V-V-V E R V E !

One week ago today, Kristin Thompson, of Vashon Verve came by for a peek at the JoeysCoat collection.  Kristin writes a blog, vashonverve.com, in which she shares events, sightings, and experiences she thinks are special about Vashon Island (I paraphrase!).  After our visit we went to see Dana in her studio.  There Kristin got to witness artistry at work...
