The Sewing Lady on the Vineyard

I am so excited to share our visit with Chrysale Parrot (that’s her name), owner of L’Atelier, whom we met on Martha’s Vineyard very recently. She makes and sells dresses from her space above a shop in Vineyard Haven.

Here she is at work in her studio. If you look carefully, you will see her with her feet up on her table.

So I talked my friend, Susan, into getting a dress. Chrysale will tailor anything you buy.
