off to america...

(Ms. Alice Early)

Well we're on way our back to the USA. We've been very busy these last few weeks cutting and making for the trip. There never seems to be enough hours in the day, but we always seem to get things done on time.

As long as US Customs let me in, then everyone will have their fittings. My usual helper, Lucy graduates this month from University, so she's got her head down for the final run. I'm sure she's going to do really well. I'm delighted that Alice Early will be helping me on this trip instead. It's her first trip to the US and I know she'll have a wonderful time.

Alice was educated at Cheltenham College and is now studying fashion and textiles at The University of Gloucestershire. She's wonderful company and I know all our clients will be delighted with her input and help.

I look forward to meeting our friends again, both old and new.
