Come'on who doesn't love a compliment. It makes your day, all day. That is what I want MJC to do, make the girl smile from ear to ear. I want her to love what she is wearing and be proud of how she looks. I want MJC to showcase the sweetness of the child. I try to keep the silhouettes simple for that reason, it's not about the fancy embroidery, it is about the darling girl wearing it. I want your little girl not to fight with you on what to wear, I want her to be comfortable and I want her to be happy! And that is it.
To learn more about MJC or view our gorgeous collections visit our website.
Yes, we like to refer to her as Samuel Jackson, or little Mule or just Sam. We love this girl and she is now 21, well, on the 1st she will be!! Seeing she has become part of the brains behind Platinum we’d better offer FREE Shipping on Platinum as well. Consider it, her birthday...
I just like the approach you took with this subject. It is not often that you discover a subject so to the point and informative.
Happy Birthday Sam! Love this girl. She sends the sweetest emails, and is “always” kind and helpful! Love her spirit and passion for her job. The new look of Platinum reflects all those qualities. Have a great weekend.
Guess the jokes on me b/c I wasn’t even on Yesterday.
HOWEVER Happy Belated Birthday to you Sam… Enjoy being 21 but dont get into to much trouble, that what i told my son! lol
Oh MY OH MY, What a nice surprise my Hubby won some MJC for my girls What a nice surprise and what a wonderful generous family you are. THank You Thans You!My girls love everything SAM!
Jessica
I hope you had a wonderful birthday Sam!!!
Happy Birthday Sam! April 1st is my birthday too, hope you had the same gorgeous weather that we had to celebrate!
Happy Birthday to Sam and thank you for the free shipping! My husband probably won’t thank you since I placed an order today that I wouldn’t have had I not had a good excuse like free shipping…oh well…it would have eventually happened anyway. Thanks again.
Denise ~ thank you so much for continuing to GIVE, GIVE, GIVE and GIVE some more. Seriously, you never stop. I know you do not do this to get thanked and you would rather your thoughtfulness go unrecognized, but every day I see more of your giving spirit and out of the blue got to experience it today through Share the Love. What a sweet suprise and it could not have come at a better time. Thank you so much for all you do…I try to live by the motto “you can never outgive” everyday in my role as an educator and you sweet friend exemplify that. I never knew the day I discovered MJ that I would gain a sweet friend & fabulous TK (KN) and so much more. Thanks again for all you do.
Happy Birthday to you…happy birthday to you….happy birthday dear Sam, Happy Birthdy to you! I hope you have the happiest 21st birthday evah. Thanks for all you do to keep the MJ Platinum coming.
Happy Birthday Sam! 
Denise, You are such a sweet and thoughtful person!! I don’t know you, but it seems you are always puting others first. It’s so refreshing in this world these days to come across selfless and giving people. Thanks for all you do you put a smile on so many little girls faces! I look forward to the MAGIC you create!!

Laura Ann, I am begging also! I would love to get my hands on a raven skirt in a size 4. I regret not purchasing it when it first came out. I am excited about the 3rd HB line coming out. I really want one of those cookie tanks. Good luck.
Very cute kitty and pretty awesome picture also.
She is beautiful!! I love cats, but I cannot have one cause I am SOOOO allergic! I saw one at the Animal Shelter and wanted to take her home, but after about 10 minutes of petting her, I began sneezing and my eyes swelled up… 
She is beautiful. I agree she must have some Maine coon in her. ( as I lay here petting my beautiful part Maine coone cat!)
Love what I am seeing and Sam is adorable…
I have to say WOOO HOOOO… I have seen pictures from 2 friends kids on here in the past few days…
Maria. Love the pic. of the kiddos!!!!!!!
Susan… Love the shot of Carson a few days earlier….
I am not a cat person, but this a pretty cat and I am so glad he makes you guys happy.
Denise, you and your crew completly outdid yourselves on the Hammond Bay line. Every piece of it is beautiful and oh so girly. However, I missed out on lots of it because I was planning my son’s 1st Birthday. However, I was fortunate enough to place an order and piece together a couple outfits that should be heading my way soon.
If there is ANYONE out there that ended up with some extra 4′s please, please contact me. (yes I am begging). Please understand I will only pay what you paid for it, I am not willing to support the folks on EBAY that take advantage of the hardwork of the MJ crew. So if you have some and feel like sharing, I am your girl.

She looks JUST like our Cobie!
Pretty, pretty… and looks like she knows it.
I am so excited about the contest. I can’t wait to find out the details.
Oh, she is so cute! She does look like Maine Coon. I also have 1 (Geisha) and a little Persian (Miu Miu). We just lost her sister suddenly this year (MiMi)
I’m emberrased to say, David and I spend about 10 minutes a night drooling her her. It is quite funny…maybe cuz she is our only girl? Or maybe cuz she is so dang funny.
Contest rules coming this week so we can go on Spring Break no stress!
AWh… I LOVE her pretty pose. I want to meet her!
If you ever find the need to rehome her- Myles and Molly are DYING for a cat!
Any chance we can get details/rules for the contest soon- I have two ideas and I need to know which way to go before I do too much on either one
Awww so glad you’re enjoying Sammie
Cats are beautiful… I’ve never had one. My mom always disliked them and my family has always owned dogs. My dad also raises labs. We have a beagle and a lab. What are the advantages and or disadvantages of having a cat? You have had both now sooo… please share. Since I really don’t know.. LOL! Oh and I am sooo loving our MJ. I keep ordering more!! Just cannot help it!
Looks like she’s becoming more social! She is so beautiful and I can tell she is loving your new house!
SHE IS BEAUTIFUL! I wish she was mine… but wait… I already have two beautiful cats =)!!!!
She looks lovely!
She is a lovely gal! And your house looks positively amazing! Hope that you are having a grand weekend!
OOO I like her a lot to! Too bad my hubby is allergic …so no cats for us but we have one VERY spoiled chihuahua!
Awww. So snuggly.
ready to pounce…..
AAH, I have 3 cats, and two of them are Maine Coons, which is what this one looks like. Love it!
That is the most beautiful picture…of a cute. I love how it glows!
I like her too! Especially her name because our male cat is named Sammie! He is more black with white fluffy fur. Our cats together could make beautiful kittens!!! Cats are awesome! Just like MJC!!! bTW love, love HB!
Another good day on the horizon. Two days in a row, now that is a pretty cool thing. Seven more days till Spring Break and that, my girls, is a marvelous thing. And Room Number 14,28,56 and 4872 ….we have good things in store for you too. Just email Sam, samm@matildajaneclothing.com with your info and...

Oh Denise! I have missed you so! I have been so sick with my back and being in bed, that I rarely make it to the computer. I missed Hammond Bay completely and what a miss it was. YOU really outdid yourself on that one and must be soooo proud. We are scraping here, so it will be a while before I can investin MJC, but it will be worth the wait.
Thinking artistic thoughts for you!

My son has Asperger’s so we do a lot of work with earning time to do what he wants with doing his chores, getting work done etc. His therapist said it is ok not to expect them to want to do things for people unselfishly. In life we all do things for a pay off. Even doing something nice for someone gives us kuddos. It’s like that episode of friends where Phoebe was trying to do something totally selfless and everything kept having perks for her. Finally she let a bee sting her as her selfless deed and her friends said “You know now the bee is going to die”. Oops. As long as the reward is not a thing(monetary), it’s ok to have payoffs for helping out, kids are very concrete. They will eventually learn on their own. Frustrating though…I know.
That is so sweet! Tiffy won’t let Brittany sleep in her room AT ALL. But, every now and then they do sweet things for each other and it melts my heart!!
Enjoy your Spring Break
Now I think I MUST get a Might Acorns T for my daughter! Still waiting on a room # in the 2000 range to come… sigh
Gosh- hope us odd numbers get a break soon lol
Hi Denise!
Just wondering if you are going to have more of those fabulous ruffle skirts from Hammond Bay (shown with the Dance Yourself Silly Tank)coming in, ever?!? I am embarrassed to admit that I keep checking every day just hoping one day the picture will be back up with a size 18months or 2t. I wanted it for my daughter’s 2nd birthday party, but I know they sold out too quick. I cannot imagine a better party skirt…why do I get an outfit in my head and cannot seem to let it go?!?!
Gosh Denise. I have found the same things with parenting/teaching my kids. The “character” issues are the most difficult to teach and are tough for me too, kills me to see them be anything less than sweet to others, ya know? It seems to be hardest with my oldest for some reason. She can tend to be selfish and not always considerate of her younger brother and sister and it really bothers me and is hard to “teach” them how they should feel. :O)
oh, just completely random, no rhyme or reason… but I can tell you they start at 1 and go up to 5000!!!
Argh! Wondering how the number are picked? I haven’t seen hardly any in the 3000′s! Love the pictures…makes me always want to buy more!
Just HAD to let you know that Emily Grace entered her classroom this morning and announced, “Good Morning! I’m a Matilda Jane kinda gurl”! She is 4 and cannot get enough of your clothes!
Ooooh close, made me do a double take. I am 4972, not 4872. Doeth, hahaha.
I know just what you mean, I hear “I’ll do …, if you do … ” a lot around here lately. I agree with you though, kids just don’t know any better yet.
Thanks for putting my girls up there. They’ll be thrilled! Erina thought she’s getting too big to be on your blog… she said “You know, mom, I’m just not as little & cute anymore!” Awwwwww!!!!
Awww Denise- thanks for picking 2 digit numbers ….I was pretty close! Brae and Ana will be thrilled to see their pics on the blog!
The constant pictures of everyone are great! Everyone looks adorable in the clothes. Another weekly run at Target today and they had more Liberty!!! YEAH!
I am loving the Bay of Birds Tank dress with those argyle socks!!! I must order that dress Darling pictures!
Wow….oh ya, wow. I woke up this morning, well you could say last night cuz it was about 2 and I have not stopped thinking about some great ideas. I am so fricken excited. I must admit it has been a while since I’ve seen the “light”. I got up so early and am working...

Shocking that there would be unclaimed room numbers! I would be happy to take those unclaimed prizes!!!
So sad I didn’t get a tag in my order! I would love to be checking frantically to see if my number was on the blog! hahah! I always enjoy getting on and keeping up with you! Can’t wait to get my next order on my front door step!
sounds like someone got some good inspiration recently! Hope we get to hear what all your working on soon!
Come into the light…… Can’t wait too!
Glad to hear you woke up with inspiration!! I still feel like I’m waking up from my winter hibernation….
Yup, we’ll post rules real soon here…i just gotta make them up!!!
Are you going to post the rules and stuff for the contest. I wasn’t around last year for it so I am clueless. Everyone seems to know what’s going on but I’m out of the loop as usual LOL.
Official rules would be fab when you can come up for air!
I’m so sad that none of our buyers from our 3/9 trunk show got room keys We were all so excited to see what numbers we got
Yay! Inspiration for you means good things in store for us!!! Have a wonderful day & now I’m off to search for that Today Show clip! Enjoy a lovely afternoon Denise & get some rest tonight!
OMG I just watched that today show clip and what an amazing story and fabulous little girl!!! and of coarse super cute outifts on those sisters!!!
I absolutely love your clothing! For some reason, this outfit (the cute little girls helps) hasn’t left my mind since I saw it! I love it! I’m liking it so much I want one for myself. One problem…..I’m 37! Have one?
My daughter just pointed to that cute little girl in the picture and told me – “she’s now going to be my friend….”
I love it when inspiration hits – good luck!
Definitely check out the Today show clip. I was watching and then I see them both wearing MJC! Cameron is such a cutie and , wow, everything that beautiful child has been through!
PS…How about posting some low numbers (like, um, 2 digit ones?)heehee…we’d love to win too
Ohhhh can’t wait to hear about the “light”!
I saw that story this AM…such sweet little girls.
That picture is adorable! Love the hat!
Such a sweet little girl! She is so adorable & what an amazing story!
I saw that too! Here’s the link Denise in case you didn’t see it: http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/26184891/vp/36032483#36032483
Denise!!! I am watching the TODAY show (3/25 at 8:15 CST) and 2 little sisters being interviewed have on MJ!!! It is the story of a little girl, Cameron, who had a left hemispherectomy due to massive seiures. I am sure the video, or at least pics, will be on the website later. Cool, very, very, cool!
What a wonderful thing it is to wake up with a great idea, love that!! So much better then waking up and having to drag yourself out of bed. Rain here also but thats ok because i finally figured out what to do for my daughters Smurf bday party…woke up with some great ideas over the weekend and they keep coming. I sware i searched the entire web for Smurf party supplies but no luck so let the craft making begin. Only the “pancake maker” would want a party theme that was popular 25 years ago…love that girl soooooo much!!!!
For those unclaimed keys….you should do some kind of virtual raffle, like just type the word raffle somewhere in your post and have a # in mind (like 1 of the #’s in the key or something) and then whoever post happens to match your # IS THE WINNER!!! just a thought!!!
Wow, that is EARLY! That’s the time that was supposed to be good for Einstein though.
What a great feeling when the ideas are flowing! Maybe a rainy day nap later… Ooooh, I love those!
Glad you’re having a great day!! Cute picture, the pretty little girl’s shoes look darling, perfect for HB!!! Good hockey weekend in FW! Miami of Ohio will be there, we talked about coming to watch. We’ll be in Detroit for the championship game, hoping they make it that far.
Take care.
Happy 4th Birthday Catie!!! I had told Lynette and Kayla I was going home to watch a movie and fall asleep on the couch. While I really want that to be the truth, it’s not gonna happen. I mean seriously when was the last time you laid on the couch, watched a movie, and fell...

Post more pics of your house!! Love the mirror pic. You taking pics of your space reminds me of a friend who just took pics of her newly renovated photog space. You should check it out, very cool they way she had it done, and how she photographed it! http://www.studio6-23.com/blog/2010/random/hello-6-23-studio

Awwww Sammi is a cutie! And OMG that house is beautiful!!! Love!!!!

What a FANTASTIC house! How did you just move in & it looks so amazing??!!! I hope you still have boxes or clutter hidden somewhere, ha! Seriously, it is a gorgeous house & furnished beautifully! But I would expect nothing less!
I am so glad that I got to see Samster the cat. So cute! I would love to fall asleep on the couch with Sam purring next to me. Your house is beautiful. It looks so elegant and clean. Can’t wait to hear more about the contest this week. Enjoy your lunch at 435! I would love to work with you all. I live to far away. ;-(
Sammi is too cute- looks very sofy and sweet! Love the painting over the couch (from what I can see of it anyhow) and I spy another of the red/white striped lamps we saw a few days ago- I really love that! Okay- you have insipired me to go hit a few stores today to look at pillows and lamps- we need something cool in our house- besides Mollys closet of MJ.

I wish I had a great story, but I really don't. It is quite simple actually; one day a friend of mine said I should make clothing so I did.
I wish I could say I started because I could not find any cute clothes for my kids, but surely that is not a problem. I wish I could say I am a "designer", but I pretty much just consider myself a girl who can't stop her brain from spinning.
The one thing I do not have to wish for is a great family and group of friends. These guys are what makes Matilda Jane rock. They are loyal and well-loved. They are also very patient for putting up with me and the ventures I pursue, sometimes on a whim. Oh, I do love them all.
