How many designers can claim that they have been wearing their own private clothing label since childhood? We know of only one.

"m.minister", Margaret Minister O'Keefe's first initial and maiden name, was the personalized childhood clothing label that her mother had sewn into all of her favorite clothes -- the Scottish beret, her puddle boots, and those sassy Maine summer dresses.

The site was designed to convey the quality of Margarets work and to showcase the clothing in everyday settings.

Fiddle-icious is comprised of a diverse group of enthusiastic fiddlers and other musicians of all ages and all walks of life. The group’s music features tunes passed on from our Scottish, Irish, Quebecois, and Acadian ancestors.

The primary goal of Fiddle-icious is to keep the tradition alive by sharing Maine’s musical heritage with the community.

The group wanted a home on the web to share music with group members and the visitors and to raise awareness of their activities with the public.

Using third party software we also customized a online forum for the group to use to share information amongst themselves.
