I'm So Excited...

And I just can't hide it! I'm about to lose control and I think I like it! Okay, enough of that but YAY!!!! We saw our first samples last week and we couldn't be happier! We walked in and they were waiting for us all nicely displayed on a table. I wanted to jump up and down but of course I stayed professional, haha!

Mila James, the Brand

After endless amounts of time spent drawing, re-drawing, discussing, thinking, erasing, erasing and more erasing, we've finally decided on a brand logo. This wasn't easy, but luckily, our friends and family were a huge help in deciding.

The Drop Off

FINALLY!!! We've FINALLY dropped off all our fabric to the pattern maker.

Fabrics, fusibles, buttons, elastics, snaps, twills, EVERYTHING is finally off our hands!

Update

All day and night, I stay dreaming about these fabrics. I thought i'd share an update with you all on how our fabrics are coming along. Our goal is to have all of our sample fabrics to our pattern maker by the end of this week, and I sure am hustling to make that happen.

LA Textile Show

*Sigh* That's what comes to mind when I think back to the LA Textile show this past Monday. We really thought we went in prepared for this experience. We went to LA the night before so we wouldn't have to wake up at 2 AM to drive in, which meant we'd have to leave Mila overnight for the first time.
