It's beginning to look a lot like . . . SPRINGTIME!!
At least that's what it's looking like in the Jak&Jewel sweatshop (aka - mom's basement!)! We've just started working on our new spring line and it is looking pretty fantastic if I do say so myself! I am SO excited about our new designs and cannot wait to get my hands on some of the great new fabric coming out! AND, for all you non-moms and mom-of-boys out there - just you wait! We've got something for you this time around! Equal opportunity clothiers - that's what we're going for! Stay tuned and I'll be posting preview pictures over the next few weeks.

I'm so lame!
In my mad dash to try to get this blog up and going, it seems as though I typed in what I wished my email address was instead of what it REALLY is. So - my sincere apologies to angela@triad.rr.com, who is not me and has nothing to do with Jak&Jewel. And my sincere apologies to anyone who emailed angela@triad.rr.com and did not get what they were looking for. I've corrected the address in the side bar and for the record - I would LOVE to hear from you at: ashotwell@triad.rr.com
And I promise to proofread from now on. At least most of the time.
Oh - and order update! If you placed an order at the trunk show and haven't received it yet, keep your eye's out. You'll be getting it this week for sure! I'll email as soon as it's all stitched up and ready to go and bring it on over lickedy-split!
And check back soon for exciting fabric news, show news and trunk show pictures!

Two great models! And one pretty sweet photographer!

| From jak&jewel |
What's better than seeing the fall clothes hanging on a fence? Seeing them on my favorite models.
And what's even better? An awesome photographer who makes you forget you're getting pictures taken and ensures that the images reflect not only the outward appearance of your kids, but their personality! That would be Sally Gupton! (http://www.sallyguptonphotography.net/ - check her out people!)
Here's what I love about Sally:
1. She takes time before your session to talk to you about what makes you and your kids tick.
2. She takes her time. We never felt rushed at all. She has kids - she knows how they roll!
3. She has awesome ideas and locations. And she's really flexible. Again, she has kids - she knows!
4. And the best part - the pictures are beautiful! They're personal.
So - enjoy the pictures! And if you're looking for a photographer, think SALLY! (hey - they make great christmas gifts, too!)
I'll be posting more over the next few days, so keep checking!

Great new pictures coming as soon as I have time to give them justice with my words. See - that makes no sense. My head is moving in way too many directions these days!! I think I'll just stop now and let the pictures speak for themselves.

Fall Fabrics
Here it is!! Check out these great fall fabrics. In addition to the awesome clothes you'll be able to buy off-the-rack (let's hear it for instant gratification!), you'll also be able to order your own design from these fall fabrics.
"Huh?!" you may say. Here's the deal:
We have a number of outfits ranging from size 6-12 months up to size 7/8 that are all stitched up and ready to wear! We'll also have some samples showcasing fall fabrics and designs. This is where it gets fun! You can order an outfit with the fabric choices we've picked, or you can make your own masterpiece, selecting from the slew of fall fabrics we have to offer! I KNOW - I can't wait either!

More Pictures!
More pictures of what to expect at the trunk show! I bribed Kate into modeling with promises of a Strawberry Shortcake video - so I can't say her heart's really in it, but she gave it her best shot!
First is the Bloom Tunic. Way cute, perfect for layering and . . . it's reversible!! (See, Kate's trying to show you the other side.) Yep, more bang for your buck, folks - that's what we're all about! We'll have this in the tunic version shown here to buy off the rack and in a dress version to order for fall with our NEW FALL FABRICS.
Next is the Petal Top and Petal Skirt. Super full for maximum twirl power!! Goes perfect with that sassy "are we done yet?" face as shown! And, yes, I do own an iron. I'm blaming it on the carseat!
More on those new fall fabrics coming soon! Stay tuned . . . .
