    Maam,

    If still available I would like to purchase the navy housewife that you have to offer, as well as one huckabuck towel. I will be able to pay via Paypal.

    Thank you,

      Everyone,

      Kathy does great work...i own the red housewife listed above and it is an amazing piece of work (and has already seen a great deal of use) Kathy is a really considerate seamstress and really does "work for the customer" I look forward to seeing what future products she develops.

          Thank you. Both housewives have found good owners.

          Monogrammed huckabuck towels are still available.

                  Ms. Bradford,

                  I just received my housewife and towel today and they are both excellent. The workmanship is superb. Thank you so much.
