Michelle Photo Michelle D'Amore Michele loved designing, coloring and silk-screening on her own 3 yard cuts of fabric. She learned how to make her own frames, stretch the silk, transfer the designs and press the paint through the screen with a "squeegee". Her dream was to live and work in New York designing textiles and for the last 30 years, she has been fortunate enough to do just that. Her goal now is to extend that dream by including manufactures in the stationary, china, gifts, bedding, and apparel industries. Michelle also designs fabrics for Benartex.
