About Us
This is the story of how Sam's embroidered Bug Band Drummer found its way onto a T-shirt.
Meet Sam, my favorite Musician
(I’m her Mom)
It all began with a love of music. Our household always had background music curated by Sam’s Dad.
The kids grew up with everything from Frank Sinatra to The Beatles to Blondie and Eric Clapton.
By the time Sam reached high school, she had her own drumset and joined the school band.
These days, Sam is also known as:
Sam's Cover
Sam then moved on to making her own guitar with a luthier (someone who builds guitars) and became quite accomplished at her covers.
A Sing-along with Mango
Sam sometimes used her guitar to accompany her buddy Mango. We're not sure if Mango likes Sam's song or is hoping it will stop!
Itchy Fingers
And then when her fingers got itchy for a new venue, she branched out into embroidery.
Here she is playing the guitar accompanied by her embroidery hoops.
Why a Bug Band?
Well, combine the love of music with a talent for embroidery, and a charming drumming bug was born.
Perhaps Sam thought that a few extra arms might come in handy with all those drums.
My Bug Band Drummer Tee
At my request, the first member of the Bug Band was added to my favorite T-shirt and placed at the neckline so I could show it off when I wear my favorite jackets.
When I wore it to a trendy restaurant and people loved it, I decided it was time to share Sam’s designs with the world.
I asked Sam if I could help, and she said yes!
