Greetings Boutique Cafe Viewers! It's been awhile since our last show, my apologies for taking a break from podcasting over the past few months due to illness in my pregnancy.

This unseen interview is with the amazing and lovely Anna Maria Horner! I truly hope you'll enjoy it and leave comments for Anna Maria as well. In our chat, we discuss her book "Seams to Me", Good Folks fabric line, new patterns available, and her exciting pregnancy coinciding with a Little Folks fabric line as well. Since we taped this back in Fall last year, Anna Maria's beautiful little son Roman indeed arrived and is beyond precious. Congratulations again Anna Maria! XO!

I'm most honored to share a video from You Can Make This.com about their charity efforts on behalf of the Children's Miracle Network. I had the pleasure of meeting Kim the owner and founder of You Can Make This at our Boutique Cafe Girls Getaway back in April of this year. Kim is savvy business woman with great ideas and with the most kind heart, I was so impressed with her caring and wanting to make a difference and that's what their new campaign is all about. I knew that Boutique Cafe had to be a part of sharing the news, when something like this comes along you want to do whatever you can to be a part of it!
Please watch this two minute video on how you can not only shop her site and create something wonderful for your children, but you can actually make a difference with your purchase of the new Miracle Pattern. The cost is $5.00 and 100% goes directly to the Children's Miracle Network. - Daria

Our first Fashion Show on Boutique Café shows off the designs of Lark Johnson and features her own sweet daughter, Sophie, as her muse and model. Lark sells her designs on eBay under the user id "my_angel_sophie" and has been a long standing and admired member of the eBay Boutique community. Her 2005 collection is called the TUTU Collection and is a wonderful melding of Funky flair for your little girl. Her tutu skirts are the perfect style to wear with any top from long to short sleeves, tank tops or even can be dressed up for a really special occasion. Lark says, " Sophie wears her own tutu's everywhere, I wanted to design something that would incorporate the girly funk look that I love and make it versatile for your little girl to wear any day."
