Modern, optimistic, playful, electrically colorful like little
suns Noni's Gerbera Daisies. Put one or several on a bag and
you've made a statement. Make a bouquet. Make extra long stems that twine around
each other and sew them on the corner of a lap blanket, bedspread, pillow, or
the hem and back of a winter coat. Now you take over. Make something beautiful.
Make something you love. Love what you make!
