Join our friend and Bloomington treasure Nancy Hiller on the patio for cocktails — she’ll sell and sign copies of her latest book, “Making Things Work: Tales from a Cabinetmaker’s Life.”

Nancy is a custom cabinet and furniture maker, and owner of NR Hiller Design, Inc. She’s known for her uncompromising craftsmanship and many of us here at Cardinal have been longtime fans of hers. Plus, she’s a total hoot to talk to.

More about her book:
“Honest, earthy, and wryly humorous, this collection of tales drawn from more than 30 years of experience at shops in England and the United States is thought provoking as well as entertaining. We follow Hiller as she stumbles into furniture making after dropping out of Cambridge University, finds employment in one, then another, English workshop, grapples with monotony, sexism, and self-doubt, attempts escape, and eventually makes peace with her vocation.”
