This will be a new feature on the site. I thought that you might like to know a little bit more about the process of changing a vintage item to a new one.

I will try and explain all that goes into my creations. What kind of ideas I have as I shop for the raw materials. What twists and turns my imagination goes through as all of the parts of the creation come together first in my mind and then in reality.

I’m currently working on a light weight coat for a client. I don’t normally do coats but the idea was interesting and the material requested was different. The client wanted a chenille coat with a peacock on the back in vintage material or in other words a chenille quilt. Since I have never seen a chenille quilt with a peacock on it I doubted that I could even find one. But to my surprise several weeks later while at the local flea market I found one with not one peacock but two in the center of the quilt.

After more detail discussions with the client I began thinking about how I was going to begin and complete the project. This thinking period can last several hours to several days. You can’t control the time, your mind has to mull over all the parts before you can make a plan and begin.
