friendship . . .

this is a story about two sweet little girls . . .

a few darling"Barn House" kittens . . .

and a truly special friendship that developed . . .

in this crazy vintage world!!

This is my daughter "Hattie" . . . and her friend - who's name is also "Hattie!!

These two girls met last year at Barn House . . .
and became instant friends . . .

yes . . . they shared the same name . . .

and were also very close to the same age . . .

and they both had a deep LOVE for . . .
those cute little Barn House kittens!!

And this year was no exception . . .

the two girls had soooo much fun together . . .

as they laughed and played . . .

and found the perfect place for the kittens . . .
to take a little rest.

I do want to say . . .
I think the kittens enjoyed all of this . . .

 

and as for the girls . . .
well . . .

 

their smiles say it all!!! :)

. . . . . . .

I am so glad these two found a friendship . . .

that could perhaps last from year to year . . .

or yes - even a lifetime . . . :)

one just never knows . . .:)

to friendships everywhere!!!

To be very honest here . . .

I took these pictures with the intent of having photos of some of the pieces

of the new "Hattie Bird" Fall collection (the plaid dress) . . .

but what I realized - when I looked at these photos . . .

is that they are truly soooo much more than marketing photos . . .

they are a record of a wonderful memory . . .

of a moment of time . . .

of two sweet and very special little girls and the friendship that they share!!

I am sooo very, very happy . . .
that it was actually captured . . . in photos!!

what is going on . . .

. . . with the Hattie Bird Clothing line???

Well - we are working on the Fall / Winter Collection!!

And in the mean time . . . here is the latest  post from . . .

www.hattiebird.com

 . . . . . . . . . .

I would like to introduce you to this darling young girl . . .

her name is . . . Posie!!

and Yes - I LOVE her name . . . and yes - it fits her perfectly!!!

Posie came with her sweet family to a Vintage Market this summer . . .

and went home with one of our garden dresses . . .
and also our very first piece from our Fall Collection . . .

A Navy Plaid Coat in a Cotton / Wool Blend with a Cream Hemp lining as shown above!

Watching her look at the clothes . . . and pick a few of her favorites . . .

you could tell she already has a real love for fashion!!

I heard from her mother Cindee . . .

that Posie is also a persistent and prolific paper artist!! :)

Story has it . . .

that she can make just about anything with paper, scissors, markers and tape . . .
and that she once made her father an entire ensemble . . .
hat, tie, wallet, flip flops, glasses and a mustache! :)

Cindee also mentioned that her daughter is fun to the core . . .
and along with fashion - also loves music, dissecting tv talent competitions,
is a level 4 gymnast for her local Gymanstics Team,
and loves playing “Waiting for You” on the piano.

It seems that Posie is a girl with many, many talents . . .
she is loved dearly by her wonderful family . . .
is sweet and beautiful to the core . . .
and yes - she definitely has an eye for fashion!! :)

We are so glad to meet you miss Posie!!!


. . . . . . . . . .

 

Yes . . .
Posie looked beautiful in her new coat . . . 
but just as importantly - it FIT her perfectly!! :)

This coat is meant to be comfortable - without constraints . . .

so that a young girl can run, and jump, and play . . .

and feel pretty too!!

new coat . . . new thoughts . . .

linen coat for . . .

"Hattie Bird"



I have been working extremely hard lately on a number of
different projects . . .
and
the girls clothing line is one of the things I have been working on . . .

lately . . . to my surprise - I have had a few requests for women's sizes . . .
especially in the skirts and coats!!

I originally saw this as a girls line - but I am thinking of doing
a few pieces for a few friends per their request . . .
and then seeing how it goes from there.

would love your thoughts??
