There's an idea, there!! Maybe ya'll could design an "Official C3VR Gathering" shirt, and sell them to the members? Pose the question to the forum members to see how many would purchase one(or more), and see if it is a viable idea. Don't know if it would be a conflict of any sort with Adam, tho. Might need to run it by him first. Just an idea.

Vette(s): 1973 T-Top, Modified SB, Auto

Hello girls! 

I've been a screen printer since 1976.  Have owned my own shop since 1996.  We specialize in car art/prints. 

AND....I'm a girl!  And I own a 1973 Corvette.

www.ditees.com

If you get enough interest, maybe we can work together.  Clothes made for women, printed by a woman owned shop!  There are quite a few ladies styles to choose from.  They even make a basic T in a woman's cut!!  (for those of us that are too old to wear the cute body hugging shirts...LOL) 

(hope I'm not breaking any rules by offering my services!  If so, please remove this message)

Hey greypoupon69,

No I'm not an artist, but I know what I like and some of the shirts and sizes that these vendors have at shows suck! If I would just settle down and not get involved with all the things I do, I would like to design and color coordinate shorts, t-shirts, hats, socks, the whole 9 yards as a line for Corvette Women! All the women in my club complain about the clothing for women also....but liked some of the t-shirts that I bought plain and then had my club name,my name, and the C-3 put on the back......

so just a fantasy, I guess I should follow....... Hey are you going to Pigeon Forge, maybe we both could persuit this???Somthing to think about!

RATS! Uh huh, I see that other's have already suggested what I was going to.   Any dream you have, you should persuit! You go girl!! I see Mickey got a post in about T-Shirts. I knew she did T's and saw some on her Website. I thought they were pretty   . Great! Glad you emailed Adam. Maybe you 3 could work something out at PF. We've got to back C3VR. I'm an artist and could design it, but Mickey said something first.
Yes, I'll be in PF & hopefully meet you there! Maybe Mickey will be there too.

Hey Mickey.......ya goin' to PF?? Here's some more "emoticons" for ya, Mickey......I didn't think I put enough on here!!

Micki....We don't have to use our artist.  He's expensive, but you get what you pay for.  No headaches because he's an expert at designing art for t-shirt printing.  He doesn't use clip art or the computer to do his art.  It's all hand drawn and the colors are hand separated.  This sets his art apart from other t-shirt artists.  I will send you some pictures of what he's done for other Corvette clubs and Corvette businesses.  But anyway!  We sure don't have to use him.  You can do the art if that's what you all decide on, if this goes through and there is enough interest to make it worthwhile.    (read:  cost effective)

Not going to PF.  We're too busy doing local shows.  Also, being self employed, we can't leave the shop closed for that long.  But the rest of you have a GREAT TIME there!

Hey Ladies, I hear you loud and clear!

I guess the guys are more into working on their Vettes, where I know when something is wrong and take it to a mechanic, LOL!

Will be here to support you! You know, I would love to design better "T's" and jackets for women for Vettes, than what the vendors have out.....its like I was in Target today and saw a cool T-shirt, but it had the word "Mustang" on it, but the lettering was cool, so I thought wouldn't the word Vette or Corvette look cooler....

My favorite T-shirt says, "Real Women Drive Vettes"

So heres to the Real Women of the World!

Theresa

Hey Misti,

I feel you. I usually take my vette to the doctor too. However, I'd like to learn more when possible and hang out with the girls and the vettes. I agree about the T's they're usually two miles wide and long! I don't own too many T's because I'm small.

Anyway, come on ladies who else is out there, let's do it for ourselves!

June
