august 18 10 refurbished skirt 499x750 Refurbished Skirt

There is so much to say about this woman!  The skirt was a dress she wore in the ’60s.  She converted it to a skirt because she doesn’t like to go sleeveless anymore.  At 78, she’s a retired geological engineer and an art lover who weaves tapestries in her spare time.  She finds store-bought clothing hard to fit, so she makes her own.  She has a city home and country home (teeming with tapestries) and she takes her creative cues from the Coast Mountains.  Phew, what a stylish and interesting character!

    This is an amazing photo! I love how she looks in the urban environment; she’s a little bit country, a little bit city, an appropriate representation of Vancouver living.
