Meet Local Maker Bianca Howell of Owl and Drum

Meet Tulsa Maker Bianca Howell of Owl and Drum. Owl and Drum is Tulsa's "one-stop shop" for modern fabrics, quilting and sewing supplies, sewing classes and gifts. When we were on 15th Street, Owl and Drum was across the street and to the east of our shop. I remember walking across the street to say hello and meet my neighbor businesses. We didn't know then, but that was the start of great friendships and business relationships. We love working with Bianca because she has an enviable knack for color and creativity. We carry her napkins, tea towels, modern quilts, and pillows in our shop. I, Ashley Daly, make tons and tons of baby clothes from the beautiful fabrics from Owl and Drum. We also host craft nights where the ladies of O&D share skills with us and customers. I always leave feeling inspired after spending time with Bianca. Read more about this awesome Tulsa maker.

Cocktail Napkin Sewing Night with Owl and Drum

Cocktail Napkin Sewing Night with Owl and Drum

This past Thursday, we hosted a cocktail napkin sewing class at the shop with our friends at Owl and Drum, the cutest sewing and craft store at 15th and Delaware in Tulsa. Have you been? Their fabrics are to die for, they've got cute gifts (headbands, books, jewelry, etc.) and classes that will whip you into a beautiful crafting wizard. Bianca, the owner, is delightful, kind and helpful. Since our shops like each other so much, we decided they should go on a date. Enter Cocktail Napkin Sewing Night at Retro Den. The lovely Mary Perisho teaches most of the classes at Owl and Drum, and she taught our class too. We couldn't have been more excited that she brought vintage sewing machines for us and our guests to use. To top the evening off, attendees enjoyed fancy cocktails, Antoinette's Baking Co. treats and our ever charming banter.
