My dear friend Ashford is running the Mini-Wardrobe contest over on Pattern Review and I am thinking seriously about entering.
Start date: 1st September 2013
Duration : 4 weeks
Goal: create a 4-piece wardrobe in 4 weeks. The 4 garments must combine (without adding additional garments) to create at least 4 looks.
You are probably thinking this woman is really showing signs of madness, and trying to be an over-achiever, and in some ways you are right, however 4 garments in 4 weeks is doable if I put my mind to it, and I am in need of a few mix and match items that will extend my wardrobe, because you know readers, I really have nothing to wear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll have some strong competition, I think my sewing pals Sigrid, Viv and Clare are all entering so we will be competing against each other, however I am sure it will be a clean fair fight ha ha.
Now off to think about what combination of outfits I am going to make ....... got to beat those girls (only joking).
Catch you later.

Sounds great, good luck, even tempted myself. Did I really just say that.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! Like you, I have absolutely nothing to wear :-) but just can't organize my thoughts enough to plan a mini-wardrobe! I can only do big....
ReplyDeleteAh, I need this contest for a trip I'm going on soon...but I don't think my ponte knit outfits would make the cut.
ReplyDeleteHave I just been volunteered for something???? No way am I going to compete with the Production Queen! Away on hols for a week, so time would be a little short for me - cheering you all the way, though!
ReplyDeleteFighting each other? Heavily ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm still debating what to sew. It's been one of those weeks that I haven't been in my sewing room at all and I have to get it sorted. What are your plans? (so that I know how to do better!)
Good luck! I really need to co-ordinate my makes better, put in some planning like you are doing. It sounds like a very sensible approach, I think :)
ReplyDeleteA great diversion from real life! I'm stuck tailoring a jacket for DH otherwise I'd join you as I too have 'nothing to wear'! Good luck
