Thank-you all sooo much for your congratulations! It is a very exiting thing indeed. eek! There will definaltley be many updates and pictures to come.

I may have stolen some thunder, because I know jen of toronto craft alert was thinking of posting about this too- forgive me! but I had to say something because I managed to catch this shop open on saturday.
I had read about Virginia Johnson in some snazzy fashion mag because her line of beach wear really took off. I didn't really put two and two together when we were walking home from our favorite Vietnamese Restaurant and I saw this shop beaming with lush colorful textile prints. It got me very exited and lo and behold, there are some beachy things there too. The printed fabric by the yard is what exited me, as well as the small things- bags, oven mitts and napkins made from the prints. I am always thrilled to see yummy fabrics- the selection in Toronto is not the greatest- and to find this close by was fun too!
If you live here, go check it out at 164 Ossington Ave. It appears to be open Saturdays, but you never know.
yay! i live on Ossington. what's the name of the store? and congrats on the house!
