So nice to meet you both last night. You definitely made my trip worth it; I didn't find curtains but I found you!.... Your designs are unique, clever, and the colors are wonderful! I also think you are smart in offering styles/sizes to fit men and women of all sizes (i.e., real people not just model figures). Put me in your tees and flip flops all summer and I will be one happy camper!

We absolutely LOVE your shop, it is totally different and our FAVORITE Shop in town! You guys should consider going public and raise money with a public offering! This is really cool...

Hi! It was great meeting you at the Armory in Maine. Who knew
that there would be such cool t-shirts there!! I gave the t-shirts to
my husband and father, who loved them!!....I then insisted that we take a
picture to send to you. The lobster t-shirt fits me perfectly with my 7 mos. pregnant belly (you can't even tell!).....

I recently auditioned and made it onto a dance team, where we'll be doing some competitions in NYC, and at other schools I'll see if I can where some of my T-shirts to them,.......I've also been getting a lot of questions about the t-shirts themselves from teammates and schoolmates who seem to really like them!...Oh and the whale tail you sent, loving it, fits like a charm!

Oh, i am so proud of you! That adobe thing is amazing! Someday when you are both famous and massively successful and
on the cover of Fortune 500 - i'll say - i remember when they were a small store in Boothbay Harbor, Maine....

...I know that you have been anxious to have your Fabulous t-shirts seen far and wide - and in thinking of this made a special point of wearing mine during our recent trip to the Grand Canyon.......How wonderful to have a poem written about your black lobster shirt - you get the most remarkable feed back to your product of anyone I've ever heard of!

......"and then a really, super nice darling college student who teaches Sailing over at the Yacht
Club came in. She saw our Moxie shirt on a girl at the club who also had a sailboat named "Moxie" and said she thought she knew her name but that she was a very pretty blonde girl who was around 20.
--I then told her it's true, we have the very nicest customers, and the best looking, inside and out!
She said the shirt was so very cool that she just figured she must have
had the shirt made for her or something, since her sailboat was named "Moxie". Then she saw an elderly man
with our shirt, the lobster one, and she thought it was really cool, but
too embarrassed to ask him where he got it. She said that now that she is inside our little shop here, that
she has seen a lot of our different shirts around the yacht club and around, but
had no idea that we designed them or that they all came from the same place!
She also really loves the navy whale tail shirt with the green tail and would
like a small unisex, or xl in the ballet. I had to totally apologize to
her for being so tired and exhausted we were up all night making
shirts.........but tried to tell her how much it means to us that she loves our shirts enough to buy them! I hope I was able to show her how grateful I was considering how tired I was - which was really embarrassing - since people generally see us as having endless energy! She was really sweet......"

Thanks so much, I got the last box of shirts today! I sorted through them all and I’m now packaging them up to send on to Bangalore and Bucharest........Thanks again for everything, the shirts have been wildly successful!

I ordered 9 shirts and they were all AWESOME!
My husband loves his
lobster long sleeve shirt - the happiness one - he wears it all of the
time. He even took it to Tampa when he went on business last month -
quite the conversation piece. He wears all of his shirts I have gotten
from you - they are so nice and wash up great..........Love them.
I also ordered the orange Life is Golden - to which the orange is absolutely beautiful. I love it - it is awesome. The rest of the shirts are awesome!
I just loved all of them and I know my
friend will love the orange one - the happiness one, soulmate, - you
guys did an awesome job and I mean an awesome job on ALL of the shirts.....
Again, thank you so much for all of the hard work on my shirts - they
are awesome and absolutely beautiful. So you and C. be proud of
yourselves because of a wonderful job that you did. I love them and
appreciate everything you have done for me....
Take care and thank you so much once again. I sound like a
broken record with all of my thanks don't I?

Red Lobster On Black

(For the Folks At-the-Beach, Boothbay Harbor, Maine)

Phyllis has a designer’s eye
She knows from a life
around the world
and thousands of catalogs
what looks good on her
and her friends

Your ideas on clothes
deserve the prizes you win
clear images, humorous thoughts
which make a point
hidden, until revealed
with a lift
then a belly laugh
or a wise “yes”

you must see the world
in your tiny shop
from which you send out
your beautiful messages
which edify, amuse
and give pause.

Thank you for making a good holiday!

This was given to us by accomplished Poet Kendall Merriam when he, and his lovely wife Phyllis, bought some of our shirts in our tiny gallery & boutique in Boothbay Harbor, Maine this Fall. Shortly after their supper at a local popular restaurnant, they arrived back to our shop with a gift in hand.....a poem! We were so honored and touched that he would write an actual poem about one of our designs and their experience in our shop! .....how many t-shirts get a poem written about them? How cool is that? Thanks Kendall! Thank you so much!!
