I'm a contestant!

Fabric Mart announced their contestants for the "Project Runway" type contest they will be running for the next 8 weeks.   You can read all about it here  http://blog.fabricmartfabrics.com/
All the contestants looks like stylish and knowledgable sewists so I'm really looking forward to seeing the results each week.   The first challenge is to make something out of scraps, recycled stuff, or unusual materials.     Nope, that's not my entry already finished above but a skirt I made several years ago out of several pairs of pants.   I love this kind of challenge and am looking forward to thinking of something different and playing with all my scraps!             So, good luck to everyone and let's have FUN with this---I plan to!

    Congratulations! Looks like fun! There seems to be a lot of variety among the contestants, which should make for a great contest! But I wish all contestants were going to be around for the whole contest--what's the point of sending people "home"?
