Belle Maison Staff Report

We've had the pleasure of collaborating with the lovely people at Belle Maison, Japan for couple of years now. As we sell lots of patterns annually around the world, and most of them through agents, we don't necessarily ever find out where they end up. And of course it would be so nice to see the final products with one's pattern on them.

We receive few designer samples annually, and the ones Belle Maison sends us are always a pleasant surprise (photo above, taken at Pattern Bakery studio...). For their latest catalogue they did our introduction. The patterns there are from Pattern Bakery, under our previous name "the collection", and the product design is theirs. Unfortunately, my Japanese isn't up to scratch, but apparently the text says that when they visited us to exchange views about our products and future developments, the meeting was conducted by eating sweets and laughing in a friendly atmosphere. And that we are "humorous cute girls". Please pop in Belle Maison, any time you like! See you soon!
