Post One: Out of Smoke Came Perfection

Here I am, my first ever blog.  It has been a few weeks since I knew I was going to do this.  I have spent some time thinking what to say.  And then on Saturday eve I had an experience which seemed a good place to begin.
Along with others, I went to the Majestic in downtown Tulsa to see Eric Himan in the "Queen" show he put together with Noah Spiegel and a group of great musicians and singers.  We are hoping Eric will do this show again somewhere.
Anyway, bars are smokey and when we got home all our clothes were smoke-filled along with  my Stephanie Dawn purse which we sell at Sweet Tooth.  Stephanie Dawn is a great line of fabric, quilted purses and accessories and advertises that all the pieces are washable.
What the heck? right? So we took the cardboard insert out of the purse and I washed it on handwash, along with my other smokey clothes.  It came out Perfectly!!  No color bleeding, no shrinking, no change at all.
It will probably take several days to dry but it will look just like the day I got the purse.
Success stories....inspirational and just plain fun.
