Hey! I know I pop in and out, more out than in...so fraught with deadlines and all, but this is to beat the band news:
Vogue had contacted me last October about providing Fifties aprons for a photo shoot, and in the box, I included one of my designs, the Smoochie. About a month ago, Vogue emailed me that Smoochie had been photographed for the March issue, but I assumed it would appear the size of a postage stamp, one among many aprons or something like that.
So, I’m at a book signing in Tulsa, and I mentioned to the store owner that I’d been on the look out for the March Vogue but hadn’t yet seen it. She walked over to her magazine rack, plucked Vogue, handed me it to me, and I started flipping through the pages. I was about through the magazine, figuring the photo had been so tiny I'd missed it, and then I turned page 529 to page 530, and there it was - an entire page with a model wearing my Smoochie. ohmygod.

I got up extra early to bake cranberry muffins for a Let's Celebrate My Apron's In Vogue breakfast. Celebrants are but two, muffins are twelve. That's about the extent of the math I will calculate in public.
Thank you for being excited for me.
