A studied and experienced businesswoman, Sue Joyce was surprised to discover her hidden artistic talents while crafting with her young children as a stay-at-home mom. During this productive sabbatical from the workaday world, this self-made designer, seamstress, and textile aficionada became the founder of Turkish-T, a colorful online boutique specializing in handwoven linens, fine cotton towels, and exceptional artisan apparel. Today, her elegant luxury brand is a true interpretation of her creativity and the charmed rustic lifestyle she has fostered with her family on the outskirts of Nashville, Tennessee.
