designs, until finally the hand became
more skilled and the patterns were
truer. She learned proportion. Then
the most tedious task OF all was
started, that of color schemes. She
learned 20 blend tones together which
She supposed would clash, the shades
that are so vastly different yet melt
beautifully together were brought out

soul into her work. Then began the
first humble steps in millinery, the
making of wire hats and crnoline
ones, but there was not a day that her
previous training did hot come 10 her
assistance. She learned the various
types of faces, graceful coiftures and
what hats best suited their patrons
She got into the work gradually. They
