butterfly in primary colors with a blue background. It all started in England. Where the original name for what we now know to be a butterfly was flutterby or was it vice versa…? Some called it a spoonerism, a breakdown on the passing of the word(kinda like I caught one this big) and many have used it as a more descriptive way in saying “butterfly”. I wonder if it happened on a day like today.  My NaNa always use to say, Lawrence do you know where the most beautifullllllllll women in the World are from? I’d say no NaNa. My Mom’s Mom would say County Cork Ireland and that’s where I’m from. I would say you have to be from there because you are beautiful too!! So from my NaNa and Me Happy St Patrick’s Day!!!

I started a new collar for a client and forgot to install concho before adding the additional 2 – 3 oz. liner leather so without fail shifted gears to create a piece I had previously done but messed up the fold area a little. The Boss here is strict with guideline parameters, including safety, comfort and style….
