I'm SO incredibly excited!! I just got an email asked me to be a designer in the Earth Day Fashion Show!! I don't know who else is showing, but I know that a local business is going to have 5 of their designers there, plus me, plus ???

I'm SO out of my element here, though. The theme is reused/recycled. . which is what I've been doing the majority of, but now I have to find models, music. . . do a storyboard to display during the Earth Day event (which I'm also photographing because I'm co-chair of that committee) and I somehow need to come up with some more pieces. . by APRIL!! :doh

Thankfully I have a few pieces made that I can use, but now I want to do some more AMAZING things for this. . . .

GOLLY!!! Please pray for me, and if anyone has done this sort of thing, PLEASE give me some advice?!

Thanks guys!! :heart

I will definitely post photos when I get them all finished!! I think I'm going to use the vintage quilt skirt and vintage quilt tunic that are on my Etsy site (linked in my siggy) for starters. . . I have a pair of orange pants that I made out of my mom's vintage bedspread which she thought she had in the early 70s. . . I also have a couple shirts (one of which is also on my etsy) that I remade from large mens shirts. . . I just hope they tell me soon how many pieces I need, and then I need to figure out some awesome new designs!

Please just pray that I don't go :crazy in the next couple months before the show!!!

I'm on your etsy now and don't see the skirt or tunic (and I wanna :hissyfit ), unless they are being worn by the models and not for sale. Which I'm guessing is the case. If so, I adore that skirt.

I took them down, Christa, just in case someone bought them before the show. . . let me see if I can add photos on here, though!!

I took them off today so that they didn't sell before the show :bag

Here are some pics of the tunic and skirt, though. . . I actually think I ended up making these from a vintage quilt that KLP mommy sent me :heart
