Today you get to see what the designers have created as their signature styles, but don't forget to add yours to the linky party too.
Good luck to each one of our designers! They have each poured their hearts into PR&P and have all done such impeccable work! A huge thank you to each of them! Remember it is one vote per computer...and the poll will be up through Thursday evening.
Sewing Like Mad-- Oh, Just ZIP it!
Okay, I am seriously surprised but certainly also very very happy and proud to have made it to the final round. Thank you SO much to all of you who have been supporting me - and encouraging me when it felt a bit uphill. Thank you! My signature style can be explained quite easily. Cosy and comfortable clothes with clean, urban lines, that looks stylish by focusing on a great fit, quality materials and techniques plus a few smart details here and there. To me knit dresses is really the essence of comfortable and stylish clothes. Everyone looks AND feels great wearing them. My kids love wearing them. This one has raglan sleeves, quite a full skirt (yay, twirling) and some simple, yet very effective contrasting details.
Nothing can add style to an outfit like a great jacket. I choose to make the Study Hall Jacket from Go To Patterns because it has a relaxed look and fit. But also because it is such a great basic with potential for the smart features that I have added. The original pattern have long sleeves but I really wanted to make a short sleeved jacket because it would be perfect with the long sleeved knit dress under. But let's be honest....short sleeves kind of limits the wearability and we are talking kids clothes here. Soooo what will satisfy both the designer and Mom in me? Long sleeves with zippers that easily transforms them into short sleeves course, yeah!! I must say I am pretty happy with that detail!
The other big thing I changed - and this is more of a design feature than a practical reason - I changed the front of the jacket from an exposed zipper to a build-in hidden zipper.
As always head over to Sewing Like Mad for more photos and info.
Thank you!

This week, I had no idea what to make until Thursday evening. So many beautiful things to choose from :-) Besides the difficulties of making a choice, I had to bake cake for my twins' birthday. 8 years old already?!
love making little dresses so I've made one this week. Emma is wearing a dress with sleeves. I played a little with the stripes in the front and back. The invisible zipper is situated in the middle of the back.
A beautiful ribbon finishes it up. There's a little hook to close the jacket.
Participating in this competition was a real honor.
I' m glad to make it so far and I hope you love my designs this week!X, Griet, Emmaenmona.blogspot.com
