labor of love, Barbara Thulin - Joyce believes making things beautiful and durable inside, is just as important as the outside. Not a seam goes unfinished. Much of the work is hand sewn the old fashioned way. She hates glue and superficial adornments. Her choice of fabrics and attention to detail is exquisite.
Barbara is an award winner and her work has been featured in The Absolut Vodka Book, WWD, NY Times, Harper's Bizarre, London Financial Times and many other venues.
