her favorite hobby: fashion
designing
All of her originals are hand-
made and whether cut of den-
inf, suede, corduroy, velvet or
silk, each garment is tailored
in relaxed, easy lines with
warm, vibrant colors and just
the right touch of classic,
dressy elegance to flatter any
female figure.
Mrs Greenway's showroom
is in her home "I try to do the
easy lines and it's basically a
one-size garment That is, a
size 6-8-10 could wear the
same garment.” she says. Silk
tunics are her specialty, but
she also works with rhinestone
and nailheads Many of her
garments are fashioned by the
art of "rag knitting ”
The technique involves knit-
ting or crocheting specially
cut strips of fabric rather than
yam. hence the name "Just
Rags by Mil ”

Although she will take spe

signs, she will riot fashion any-
thing from someone else’s pat-

be rushed to process orders
Because her fashions are
handmade, their quality ex
ceeds that of most manufac-
tured garments, but because
she is not operating a factory
to mass produce her designs
she cannot classify her enter
prise as a commercial busi-
