Blessed to be a Blessing!

I was blessed to be selected as an Emerging Designer at Oklahoma City Fashion Week on Saturday, April 20, 2013.  It was an awesome and humbling experience. 

Because of that experience I have met and developed relationships with so many wonderful people.  One of those people is Laura Robinson, owner of Mark 541 (www.fivefourtyone.blogspot.com), (www.mark541.com).  I have been in contact with her for a few days requesting copies of the pictures that she took at the event.  The two pictures posted are two of the pictures that she shot of my looks on the runway.

I am hoping and praying that I can feature her as a guest blogger in the coming days or weeks.  Stay posted so you can learn about this woman, her business and her love for the Lord.  I am blessed to know that the Lord is leading me to develop relationships with people in the industry that are led by the spirit and God fearing.  She is blessed and has been a blessing to me.  I believe God is going to enlarge her territory because of her obedience and faithfulness.

As you sow blessings to others it opens your life to be blessed by God.  So, if you are blessed, be a blessing.  Do it with a open heart with no expectations and see how God rewards you!  Smooches!

Oklahoma Fashion Week 2013

I just arrived home yesterday after experiencing the most amazing weekend ever.  I presented my crochet at the first annual Oklahoma Fashion Week 2013.  I was sooo emotional the month prior to the weekend.  I was a nervous wreck and worried about how people would perceive my looks.  The response was overwhelmingly great and now I am inspired to begin creating new designs and participating in other events that will showcase my designs and let them be seen. 

The entire experience was new, exciting and exhausting from creating the looks, making sure that I had all of the necessary items such as logo, business cards, updated website, personalized invoices, airplane tickets, linings for my
 dresses, and accessories.  Once I was there I was responsible for selecting models, fitting the garments, choosing the right accessories, and doing rehersals with and without the garments. 

Once the Runway show began, I was no longer nervous or anxious, I was calm, excited and ready for the show to begin.  The girls were beautiful and the garments looked magnificent on them.  I felt relieved and honored to be invited to showcase my looks.

I want to say that through the whole experience I felt God intotal control.  He gave me the talent and opened the door for me to participate in this experience.  This is the debut of Lovepetals Crochet.  Eyes have not seen nor ears heard what God has in store for us in the near future and years to come.  To God be the Glory!!!
