I am excited about Elizabeth's outfit. What a creative way to use the reverse side of the fabric for the skirt to tone it down! I love the hoodie too! The outfit is very flattering

Oh my!!! What beautiful garments and wonderful explanations and very handy tips…If I wore a hat, it would be off to all of you!!! :-)

Great job to everyone, beautiful fabric and beautiful garments. It is very hard to pick one.
Angela: September 14, 2016
I LOVE what Jennifer did with the fabric, that is awesome!
Charlene: September 15, 2016
Deciding was hard. I think everyone did an outstanding job.
Sue Parrott: September 14, 2016
Wow, I agree with Carolyn, this is a competition! Well done! I can't wait to see what everyone makes next week!

Love love love this fabric! I just recently got brave enough to sew with sweater knits and I LOVE the outcome! I really LOVE what Jennifer did with her sweater knit…..I have the same problem with mustard fabric against my face so I'll have to remember that advice in the future.

To be honest that fabric is very busy, and not one that I would choose, but wow, these ladies made it happen! I really like Melanie's duster. Lee

Great job by everyone. I really like Melanie's duster as I love that pattern and have made it quite a bit but never in a print, until now! Look forward to seeing more from all of these ladies.

All the entries are superb, but I'm particularly taken with Jennifer's dress! Such an inspired approach to a large scale print - you're a genius Jennifer!
Elizabeth: September 15, 2016
Great job everyone! I know this can be a nerve wracking process and you all worked very hard to produce great pieces- so high fives and pats on the back all around! Good luck to each of you!

This was a great first challenge and I think everyone did such a great job with their interpretation of the fabric. I was very happy to see no repeats. Great job everyone

I voted, but I did not want to have to. Boy oh boy, what a first challenge. I suggest that they all go on as winners. Jennifer, the article you mentioned is from THREADS magazine. I was reading some of my back issues and read this article about four months ago. I cannot find that issue right now, I have nearly all of the issues, but that is where it came from.

If I had to make a selection it would be Tee's outfit because of the intricate detailing of the leather around the armpits and the fringe. Gorgeous Tee!! Gwen

Great Job to all the ladies!

I thought it was, but since I couldn't find the article, I wasn't sure. I get several sewing magazines, so sometimes they blur together. The July 2016 Threads had a dress on the cover that used a similar technique where the designer used two of the same panels and sliced them up into strips slightly offset and sewed them together to created a cool shattered effect. I would love to do that sometime too, but that isn't the one I'm thinking of (in case that was the one you were referring to.)
