Fashion your future

So how would I start out designing a collection - honestly - I would grab some paper, or if I was really thinking about it a sketch book, and I would start writing, I would start writing all the thoughts that are already in my head: It's easter, spring is coming, sometimes it's sunny, some times it's raining, new flowers, new life, change, brightness, light, fun, floral.. and on on...

Habakkuk 2:2 (The Message) Lets bring our inspiration, lets share our experiences and ideas. Lets work together to make something that will grow. Lets build something strong.
