Canoe race in 24 hour day light


We have a fair number of mail order peeps up north in Whitehorse and Yellowknife.
Garnet, from Whitehorse, emailed me a few weeks back when we posted the new canoe print on the blog. She is doing an epic (in my books anyway) canoe race and thought it would be fitting to have a Squirrel Hunter Tunic with canoes printed all over as a reward when she is finished.

Here is Rose, our new studio gal, modeling the canoe covered Squirrel Hunter. Check out Garnet's super cool canoe race in the northern part of this great 144 year old country of ours. We are cheering on team #22. Good luck Garnet! Hope you love your tunic. Send us a photo!

Squirrel Hunter: New Colour Added


We just finished sewing grey tunics. Now, what to put on them?

We are printing these up in an hour or two. If you have any suggestions, let us know.

Studio Update: What's goin' on!

Well if I were you, I'd be super curious as to what's going on in this awesome joint, the Smoking Lily studio. And lucky for you, Friday is the day we get to tell you!

As some of you may have noticed, Steph is super duper pregnant! She went on maternity leave last Friday and should be having her baby in the next week or two!! I can't believe it! We are all so excited and also very sad that she can't be here with us all of the time. We miss you Steph but will get over ourselves for the sake of your child.

In other news, we've made an awesome tunic dress. It's called the Squirrel Hunter. Thank you Joanne. It's really cute, as you will notice in the photo of me. There are two ample pockets, flattering princess seam lines and it's going to come in a variety of great colours. The fabric is a comfortable linen, rayon and Spandex blend. I can see it working for any season! There was supposed to be an arrow pointing to where you place the squirrel in the diagram below, but the arrow disappeared when I uploaded it. Sorry, you will have to use your imagination.

Trish just drew up a really amazing new print, the maple pods. The varying sizes and scattered pattern has such a nice flow, this will be a great addition to our fall line.

Also going on in here are new Rowan Dowans. We recently picked up some enticing new leathers in colours including a pink, hunter green and beautiful textured gold. Combined with Liz's excellent printing skills these Rowans are exciting indeed!
