Grace Mark's chapeaux are a favorite of the Hat Ladies of Roswell . .

The Hat Ladies of Roswell met at the Smith Plantation at the end of March for a photo shoot with Neighbor Newspaper photographer, Mike Jacoby.

Grace's designs have graced the heads of the Hat Ladies for some time. The Ladies hope that her designs and their own flair will receive lots of attention when they travel to Rome to volunteer their time at the Atlanta Steeplechase.

The Ladies will be wearing Grace's hats in the hat parade and hope to bring home an award.
