I'm going... are you?

Oh, how I love Austin!

On November 10th, this coming Saturday, Stitch: Handmade Revolution will be at the Austin Convention Center. It's a fashion showcase of all the local designers in Austin. I'm really stoked about it as this will be my very first fashion show. I do hope all will join me in supporting this event and by extent ion supporting the worthy and talented local designers!


You can buy your tickets at stitchaustin.com and they are only $10 so you have no excuse not to get one. Doors open at 4pm and the show starts at 9:30 so be prepared to hang out and mingle... The first 400 (I think) through the door get a goodie bag, even more incentive to come early.



"The Stitch Fashion Show and Guerrilla
Craft Bazaar is an annual celebration of independent design, artistry and
creativity. The idea was born when four austin designers (Jesse Kelly - Landes
of Amet and Sasha, Tina Sparkles of Sparkle Craft, Karly Hand of Identity Crisis
Clothing and Jennifer Perkins of Naughty Secretary Club) joined forces to create
a forum to show their designs, the women took it upon themselves to establish
Stitch. Stitch is community directed rather than competition oriented,
ultimately designed to showcase the work of independent designers in a new
format. Stitch serves as an opportunity for participants to connect and build
relationships with other members of the creative community. As an extension of
the Stitch philosophy, the producers have added a new element: The Stitch Grant,
a grant program for independent, creative businesses."
