I have some catching up to do on the Bow Jacket Roundup!!
Bow Jacket No. 101
Sassy Cat
When I was in NYC at MJ Trimming close out sale I got some red ribbon. I realized I hadn't used red solid ribbon very much at all in all the jackets which i thought was interesting. I love putting red and purple together, timeless color combo. For the back I mixed my last bit of brown cheetah with the red white and blue ribbon. My idea was if you are wearing a bow jacket, I think you are not thrilled with the patriarchy and are a little sassy cat and want to help take it down.

Cosmic Tourist
This one was so fun. When I went to Moab to pick up my puppy Clover I stopped at my favorite weird gas station that is just outside of moab. It is a weird space theme. I have driven by many times but never got to go in. Inside was even whackier than outside and had all the weirdness you could dream of. And the merch oh the merch! So good. I got pins and stickers and mermaid and sasquatch poo (its marshmellows) I LOVE a themed gas station and then when they have good merch that matches omg im dead. The guy working was watching a tv show about child abuse also added to the creepiness of the whole thing, the sounds was blasting too, but he was very nice to me. Im glad i was there at 10 am. The desert is a wild place. The theme is aliens and this definitely seemed like a place to find some aliens. I wanted to make this jacket ready for abduction, i think a space ship is a great place to wear a bow jacket.

Bow Jacket No. 103
Mantras
I started going back to yoga in January. I was in deep depression and my hands were hurting and I was taking a little work break. I found this dreamy studio that is on the newer side here and omg it saved me. Vibes so high. I started going back all the time. Yoga is such a good way to reconnect with your body and the present moment. Now when I start to lose it I remember to go back to center to the present moment and we are just living on a floating rock. I love the colors inside the studio. This particular friday I was very puppy tired and went to yoga and all of the sudden the bow jacket of the day color way came to me. I came home and made it. I like having a neutral front and a pop on the back so they cant miss you from a far.
