Many people have been having fun just sewing along with the competition. If you are sewing along with us, feel free to send your before and after photos to bhunting@eoni.com. Check out these cute “Denim Sewalongs”:
Wow, here is Nout’s amazing transformation:

I can’t wait!
awww…. the little girl looks so pretty…. Love what you are doing with all this cloths am guessing I don’t have to throw or give out my unuse clothe anymore, rather i’ll just try this technique out and see if I don’t mess them up, thanks for posting
Hi Kimberly, If you try some of these, I’d love to see pictures of your projects!
I sure will 🙂
Oh, drat! I meant to send in my shorts-to-beach-bag. You can see it here: http://weddingdressblue.wordpress.com/2013/06/06/refashioning-those-shorts/
Plus, it was before the contest…but, I still like it!
No problem, I just posted it for you!
Cute bag!!!

These refashions are amazing and so inspiring. I just started making over a denim dress very similar to Sandpaper Kisses original garment (nudged by this week’s challenge, might I add). Now I have a different direction to think about! Thanks to all the sewalong gals for their great ideas.
Oh, I do hope you’ll send me a picture when you’re finished, Jo!!!
“Finished” might mean a picture of it in the trash 🙂 It’s my first major makeover … shall have to see how it goes!
I have confidence in you!!!
I’m so glad you’re doing the sew-a-long Beth! It’s so fun to see all of these creative ladies’ refashions! Great job everyone! 😉

I think it’s so much fun to see how everyone interprets the challenges differently.
My fave is the little girl’s dress. Here’s an idea for a refashion–how about a shower curtain to clothing challenge? Some shower curtains are soft enough for clothing plus they offer a large sheet of material. A waterproof shower curtain would make a great raincoat or windbreaker. What do you think?
That’s a great idea. It would be fun next season to have an unconventional challenge.

These are all really cool.
I really like Nout’s dress. What a transformation – from a frumpy “mom” dress to a stylish dress with sexy lines. It really shows off her hourglass figure. It’s a totally sexy vibe – totally. I bookmarked a link to her site so I can try the same thing at home.
Sarah’s shirt is really clever as well, and it looks very well made.
Thanks Jennifer! Very kind words:) xo, Nout
I love seeing everyone’s creative interpretations of the challenges.
