The votes are in

I was just contacted by Burda to let me know that I received 2nd place in the Project Runway Rowenta Remake Challenge. Thank you SO much for all who voted for my skirt.

What was the prize? $200 and here is what I am going to do with that money:

-finally get that invisible zipper foot that I have been dreaming of
-buy some beautiful lightweight navy wool to make this dress
-pay someone to help us design this blog and make it a bit more professional

I was thinking about putting together a free tutorial for the blog on how to turn a wool blazer into a skirt (much like my entry). Would you guys be interested if I did?

  11. I still say you should have taken first prize but second is always the best!

    I would also love a tutorial. I keep telling people about how amazing the transformation was.

  14. Congratulations! I was hoping for a tutorial...you read my mind. A couple of months ago, I was helping my hubby find a blazer for a job interview and was shocked at the men's jackets at the thrift store--silk garbadine, wool/silks, wool tweeds! I was racking my brain for how I could turn those super cheap blazers and suit coats into something wearable, and it hurt my head too much. So a tutorial is greatly appreciated.
