About Me:
I was born and raised in Sweden, studied in Switzerland and England, worked in Holland, Spain and Belgium, and lived 12 years in Japan, before moving to the US. While in Tokyo, I fell in love with vintage kimono and obi fabrics and started collecting. I have used some fabrics in quilts, but when returning to the US last year, I started to design and sell greeting cards using these beautiful fabrics. Each design is hand cut which makes it quite time consuming assembling one card, but it also makes them unique, since not two cards look the same, due to the changing patterns of the kimono.

HELP! I have forgotten how to change the photos on my page. The first one, with the Swedish mini-horses dressed in Japanese clothing, has been there for a while, and I want to change it.

Hi Mona - I will visit your shop. I can't imagine how much space thousands buttons must take up! Have fun playing with them.
