If you follow Emily Ann Roberts music

Yee Haw Mee Maw is a term she frequently uses!

So when I saw this yesterday…. I knew I needed to be working on this one out of inspiration from none other than the Yee Haw Mee Maw crew!

With an intricate back detail I will reveal once complete!!

Just putting feelers out here…

Please let me know in the comments if you would be interested in embroidery items like such…

This will help me determine if an embroidery machine will be worth the investment.

Not my photos or designs but would like to offer something similar. No, I will not be purchasing sweatshirts/tees in bulk because here at The Refined Rag we are all about reducing textile waste! More to come later…

Just need to know the interest level from my lovely

Thanks to all!

🌷✨ Easter Eve in the Studio

The day before Easter always feels like a quiet reset — a little pause before the pastel chaos, the family gatherings, and the spring magic.

In the studio, it’s all about gentle colors, revived fabrics, and pieces getting their second chance just in time for the season.
Florals being reimagined. Denim getting a fresh twist. Scraps turning into something worth celebrating.

Renewal doesn’t start tomorrow.
It starts right here, in the making.

Upcycled. Uplifted. Unapologetic.
And today… beautifully in-between.

🔄 Take Back Tuesday

Today is all about reclaiming what was written off.

In the studio, that means grabbing the scraps, the “not good enoughs,” the forgotten fabrics—and giving them a second shot at being something powerful. There’s something rebellious about taking back what the world tossed aside and turning it into wearable confidence.

This week’s reminder:
You can take back your time.
Take back your energy.
Take back your style.
Take back your story.

Upcycled. Uplifted. Unapologetic.
Every transformation starts with choosing to reclaim.

🌙 Slow‑Down Sunday

Slow‑Down Sunday means coffee, calm music, and a studio full of half‑finished ideas waiting patiently. Not rushing, not forcing — just letting the work unfold.
. . .

Even on the quiet days.
