Q: I am seeking an artist to create an original work of etched glass in an Art Nouveau style to be placed in the hole of a pocket door leading to my formal dining room. Any leads you might be able to provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. — Steve Huhman, Woodstock

Q: For many years, I have slept with a “Cat in the Hat” pillow. It is actually shaped like the Cat’s hat, so it makes an excellent neck pillow. On a recent trip, I left it at a hotel. I am undergoing surgery and would love to have another pillow like this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. — Nina Goody, email
A: Nina, call Mary Wenning Designs at 404-558-0603. She’s an experienced seamstress who works on many special projects. With a long history in dance, she can whip up tutus and even create and alter wedding gowns and prom dresses. I spoke with her about your pillow, and she assured me she can sew pretty much anything.
