Welcome to our blog spot!
It has been a long time coming, but there is now a place where I can share great info with you, and you, in turn, can let me know what is going on in your world! For some of us, we have grown as friends over the last 22 years. Many of your children now have children who are wearing original artwork from Kate & Bud’s Closet! I love it! For those of you just starting out, I am glad to be a part of your journey…
Many of you were aware that I had hand surgery this past December. Thankfully, the hand injury was not work related…and I am working very hard to build up my hand and arm strength! The month of January was devoted to a visit to the Atlanta Apparel Mart and creating the new designs for spring. During the next few weeks you will find several updates on the website. Look for featured outfits similar to what you see at the many craft shows at which we meet. Let us welcome spring together…a little couture…fun accessories…and jeans!! What would a wardrobe be without wonderful, creative jeans…big bows and lots of happiness! You can count on Kate & Bud’s Closet…I am here for you!
Please spread the word…Kate & Bud’s Closet is opening the door and can’t wait to invite you in!

Hi Lynda! Sorry I havent been in touch. Been in Chicago and planning a wedding….Joshua! Yea!! Also had a something or other that put me down for two weeks along with the snow (UGH). Will check your web for shows to see if we cross paths. So much to talk about – too much to write. Hope all is going well and we can soon dig ourselves out of this messy white stuff. Talk soon.

love the news!! Are you planning to travel to wedding part deux? Can’t wait to hear everything!
I was going to go to Pittsburgh this weekend , it’s the gift show; however, I am going to have to redirect because of other obligations. So excited to know that I will see you both in Monroeville. Did you make your reservation yet? Let me know.
Loving the website…
Miss you…

Hi Lyn sorry so late with this – I feel like I am living a soap opera sometimes! Yes reservation is made at courtyard by marriott 3962 Wm Penn Highway. If you get on priceline and put in 2 1/2 stars you will get it (I did twice, last year and also this) @ $59. per night. A great deal as the hotel is realllly nice and it is right on top of the hill at the large gas station – I think it is a sheetz or an MTO on the left. Great deal for the $. Cant wait to see you there!

Thanks for the info…I actually did priceline and wound up at the Holiday Inn on Mosside…hoping that it is good. It looks new, however, I have nightmares about the old Holiday Inn… In any event…don’t forget our dinner date! (at least once…) I can’t wait! I am in FL now…getting ready to post a new blogspot! Check back! Hugs to you…
