This is your VIP invitation to help me finalize 2022 designs. Last year we did it on Zoom, but this year we can meet in-person which is so much better because then you can see, touch, and try on samples.

• Where: My home studio at #105, 200 Boundstone Way, Kanata
• Who: VIP customers who have been double vaccinated
• What: Coffee/Tea, Dessert & Shopping
• Why: To provide valuable input into new designs for 2022
• How: Sign up below for your preferred time slot in Eventbrite

Safety protocols

I want to be careful though as I don’t think we’re out of the woods yet with Covid. So, I ask out of courtesy and safety for all that you please be double vaccinated. I’ll host 10 people at a time. That way there’s lots of room. You can sign up for a time slot at 11:00 am or 2:00 pm.

You are required to wear a mask to enter my condo building. Once you’re inside my home, you can take off your mask if you feel comfortable doing so. I’ll have hand sanitizer at the entranceway.

Parking

There are a few visitor parking spots to the right of the building. I have an extra reserved spot #4 that someone can use. You can also park around the circle in front of the building, or along Boundstone Way before you enter the circle. My ring # is 1051.

Your valuable input

As VIP customers, you get to see the new designs I have in mind for Spring/Summer 2022. Here’s a peek.

Rib knit T and Drawstring Pant

Tunic in Contrasting Micro Stripe

Jumpsuit, belted or straight

Bolero Cardi, goes nicely over top the Carolyn Dress

Mix & Match all the pieces

All the pieces mix & match and will work well with what’s already hanging in your closet. You can even try the samples on. They’re roughly a Size 2(M). Bamboo is very stretchy and forgiving so you can go up or down a size depending on how you like to wear your clothes.

Please keep in mind these are first round samples. They’re not perfect. The colours, details, etc. will not necessarily be what ends up in production. That’s why I need your help. I have to get back to Brandi & Ivy at The Bobbins Production Studio with changes as soon as possible. The next set of samples needs to be done before Christmas.

I love when you’re part of the design process. I always appreciate your valuable feedback. It makes my job a lot easier. After all, the clothes are made for you.
