November Can't Believe It's Almost Thanksgiving Update

Hi friends,

OMT is very busy this time of year. We are in the process of product development for our Spring 2012 line. Here are some sneak peek images below:

It's starting to come together..

Dyed warp ready to be put on loom.

Spring 12 yarns for handloomed treasures!
Starting in January, I will be based in Kampala with regular trips to Gulu. It makes the most sense for all the design to be housed in our Kampala workshop. I'm excited to get to know our Kampala tailors better. This does not mean that I won't be spending time with the Gulu tailors. I will continue to train our Gulu tailors with each new design and checking quality. I'm very much at peace with this new direction in my life here in Uganda.

This weekend, I'm headed up to Jinja to white water raft the Nile. Pray that I don't get swallowed up or eaten by a crocodile! (Just kidding, Mom, it's very safe. Promise!)

Love to each of you!
Lauren

    Lauren,
    First I love your blog page. It's gorgeous. Second I'm sitting here tonight needing comfort and I stumbled on your blog. Jesus knows when we need what we need to keep us going. Your blog made me laugh and cry and just to feel filled with goodness knowing I have such an amazing friend out in the world making a change. I am so proud of what a great young lady you are. I am a little jealous too! Hedges. I said you would change the world one day. And you are. Keep on keeping on and I will keep praying for your health, your mission, and a very happy heart for you. Can't wait to see you again. Merry Christmas and may the new year find you even more blessed. Love you girl. Tracy
