Not all of the shirts that Tina has made for me are traditionally bright and flowery, this green fern leaf print is one example. I love it and I am always appreciative of Tina's talent. How I smile when I get asked: "Where did you get your shirt?" It's the look of disappointment that such an admirable shirt is unique. "Your wife made it?" they say, "Yes she did," I will reply, trying not to look too smug.
Just for good measure she made the high rise trousers too, what a clever girl the lady is.

Her work is, as you say Randy, top dollar, and it's very kind of you to compliment her, but she has always maintained that doing it for a hobby is fun, whilst making a living from it inevitably has all sorts of pressures, like deadlines, stock availability, carrier damage or losses, the list is endless. She is happier to do it as and when it suits her.Ms. Tina is, indeed, very talented. If she opened a shop, I know her clothing would command top dollar.
Is she up to touring in the MG this spring?

Did you know that her chosen career, before retiring, was a paramedic in the ambulance service? Now there's pressure, but she took it in her stride.

Here she is in one of her own dresses. She not only made it, she designed it too. Hopefully we will be out and about soon, perhaps even, by the end of this month. Easter is early this year and there's a lot going on in and around where we live.
Back at you GHT. Your Hawaiian shirt and fedora combinations are classic.Beautiful blue colour, so striking. Compliments to you.
What a generous compliment, much appreciated.Back at you GHT. Your Hawaiian shirt and fedora combinations are classic.
When you've got style, you'll always be a cool character!
