I am happy to announce that Carbon Environmental Boutique, on 10184, 104th Street in Edmonton, is now carrying Sugar Soul hats that I make from vintage fabric and re purposed clothing. Thanks, Allison for adding me to your amazing roster of eco-friendly and locally made products!

Thank You, Vancouver!

Thank you, Vancouver, for the great reception you gave us at the One of a Kind Show last weekend!

The show was a lot of fun, and despite the long hours, I still had a chance to enjoy some beautiful weather and restaurants. There are now quite a few Sugar Soul hats roaming the streets of Vancouver. If you missed your chance to find the perfect hat for you, or are wondering where you can add to your collection, you can always shop online at my Etsy store.

I am looking forward to coming back to Vancouver next spring or fall.

I'll be headed down Calgary way in a few weeks for the Make It Show and Sale, November 6th-8th. Hope to see you there!

Last Day for OOAK!


Today is the last day for the amazing One of a Kind Show at the Vancouver Convention Centre (under the sails). The show is open from 10am to 5pm so you'll have plenty of time to come shop before you enjoy an early turkey dinner.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Baby Bums...WHAT?!

The One of  a Kind Show is just days away and I am really excited about heading to Vancouver.  This will be my first show outside of Alberta and it is also the largest show I have ever done.  With such a lot of sewing and preparations left to do, I had to wind up my seasons at Sherwood Park's Festival Place Market a couple of weeks ago and at Edmonton's City Market last weekend.  Thank you to all my customers this summer-your bright, cheery and supportive attitudes are what make the outdoor markets so fun to be a part of!  I'm already looking forward to next May, when we start up again.

Headcase Hats and Sabrina Butterfly will have a brand new batch of hats in mid-October, including the popular aviator/ear flap hats that I introduced last year.  Fully lined with fun fur, I've attached handmade pom poms on the ends of extra long tassels. They are the perfect edition to a Canadian's winter wardrobe (sorry to mention the W word)!

Before I head back to my sewing machine for the rest of the morning, I just had to show you my new labels and share the strangest fabric that I've ever used to line a hat.  Cute? Weird? A bit of both?!  It makes me laugh.
