I love Virginia's prints. I live in Los Angeles where they're hard to find--can't really figure that one out--so every time I go to Seattle I stop at Juniper to pick up another tunic, another bag, another shawl...just can't get enough!
I'm Alison's sister and we both love Virginia Johnson. Whenever people come to Toronto from out of town, we bring them to the Virginia Johnson boutique on Ossington so they can bring home a pretty little Canadian artifact. And it's true, all of the women in our family are obsessed.
I love love Virginia Johnson everything! Her designs are so inspiring. The shawl is so cute, I drooled on the screen. ;) As a new mom, I can't usually afford to buy anything this nice for myself. (the wee ones comes first.) I hope to save up enough to buy more of her stuff someday. If I win this shawl.. God, I would wear it everyday~*
The other day my bf told me he dreamt he was an astronaut and had to fight off sharks in space. Funny right? I think we have the makings of a sequel to the movie Snakes on a Plane: Space Sharks! Every time I'd wear this shawl it would remind me of his funny dream.
I always wear a shawl when I go for a morning/evening walk with my baby and I usually end up wrapping myself and my boy with it. He would love the soft feel of the fabric and the image...and it will keep both of us warm and looking stylish!
Awesome. What a nice surprise. I have several V.J. items: Elephant Shawl, Red Pebble shawl, owl scarf & hat, brown dandelion print dress, and the whale print cotton scarf. Whew! Huge fan...thanks for this opportunity to win!
I work with your fabric on my chairs... I've also made myself a maternity tunic. I have been a fan for years and in fact will be popping by the store on Ossington this afternoon. Crossing my fingers and toes (and asking my unborn wee one to do the same) for the shawl!
This shawl has special meaning to me. I used to be part-shark . I threw it all away on a no-good Prince who fell off his boat. Probably drunk - Red Flag ladies. I lost my voice for him and my sexy fin and fishtail. This beautiful shawl reminds me of my loving family that I foolishly left behind. If I win an original Virginia Johnson, I will cherish it in place of my former fishy self… under the sea.
Thanks for writing a blog. I just finished an article about your work in Fibre Quarterly...I love reading about someone's process. Your work is thoughtful and beautiful.
just discovered your amazing saturated color & print upholstery thru molly worth @chairloom. how to great learn that you offer both home & lifestyle accessories. your shawl is the perfect choice for warm summer days & cool summer nights.... best wishes and happy summer!
What a gorgeous shade of blue! A perfect combo of edgy & chic! I would wear this shawl everyday. Well, maybe every other day since I love my red pebble beach wrap too-it's my grown-up security blanket ;)
Love your whimsical designs and your beautiful use of colours in all your collections. Your unique pieces definately make a statement and stand out from the rest! very Virginia Johnson! Cheers Vittoria
i know i'm dramatic but feel like crying right now. my fiance was trying to be helpful and threw my favorite tan 'partridge' or 'little bird' shawl into the washing machine!! where can i find another one? feel free to email him at mabtinc@yahoo.com if you know! i bought it at Barney's in Scottsdale, but live in Vancouver. Any ideas are welcome! thank you! Trina

I would love to surprise my mom for her 52nd birthday at the end of the month with a Virginia Johnson scarf! All of us just adore your prints.

Sharks! Amazing. Though I don't think I could resist humming the Jaws theme whenever I wore it.
beautiful shawl!
Usually, when I think sharks, I think the Jaws theme song. Yet here, they're cute with just a little edge of danger. I love your prints, Virginia!
Perfect summer wrap!

I have been collecting Virginia Johnson shawls for a few years now - they are so versatile and the lovely designs are hard to resist!
I was given a bright pink one with the men in sombreros. LOVE YOUR WORK!

Hi sharky scarf, I love you. I would love to win you so I can wear you and you can bite my neck.

This is fabulous - I've always loved sharks and I adore your shawls, it's the perfect combination!

If this scarf found itself surrounded in shark-infested waters... I would jump in to save it...
the perfect shawl for a foody with attitude, i.e. moi?
oh my, this is lovely.
I love Virginia's designs! This print in particular reminds me of the wonderful documentary Sharkwater, by the canadian film maker Rob Stewart.
