Monday, we were zigging and Zagging with Missoni. Today, we are adding the chevron to our lexicon of patterns. Jill Rosenwald has a rather intriguing story: “Born in NYC, Jill got her groovy crafty start at summer camp designing macrame wall hangings and leather bracelets. After getting caught by NYC undercover cops for illegally selling on the streets — Jill went legit and showed her ceramics at the ACC craft market in West Springfield, MA. She hit it big with her first client, Neiman Marcus. The operation was “just Jill”… using the pay phone to run the ops. But as orders began to grow she knew she needed her own phone, and so moved into the first studio in Somerville.”

I loved exploring her site…great color combinations and a world of inspiration. What a terrific background story!!!
