Upcoming shows for Fall 2012

     I skipped the shows last year, I think the economy kept a lot of artists out of shows last year.  Not much point in all the effort to set up at a show if you don't even make your booth fee!  I LOVE the interaction with my customers that I can only get in a show setting but hate the pressure of creating to meet the show deadlines.
     This year I will be showing at the Stone Oak holiday show in the clubhouse at Stone Oak Country Club in Holland, Ohio on October 20. It runs from 10 to 4. I did this show for several years and it has a nice mix of the best local artists and was very well attended.  If I am going to test out how well I can do at shows again this is the place to start.
      I am also thrilled to be collaborating with 4 other designers to present a fashion show event in Flat Rock, Michigan on November 3.  It will be held at the Community Lutheran Church Life Center 23984 Gibraltar Rd in Flat Rock. There will be 4 different runway shows and a vendors area where the garments will be for sale. Also other local artists with fashion related items for sale.
There are a limited amount of VIP tickets for $25 and general admission tickets are $15.  Doors open at 12.  To purchase tickets call Cheryl Zemke at 734-740-1292.

I have been in the studio working on some new designs, the creating part is what I love to do.
