Old, Old Contest - 11 Piece Swap Does anyone remember the rules?
Lizz   Advanced TN USA Member since 10/10/03 Posts: 258	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 5/7/12 11:41 AM It's been a while since we have had a contest involving 11 piece or 5 piece wardrobes. My ASG group is beginning an 11 piece swap and I need some guidance on what makes up a usable, versatile collection. I thought if I could review the rules we used here it might jog my memory and get me started on the right track. My search in the archives got me nowhere. Can anyone help? Thanks, Lizz

The jacket should go with all combinations and one top and bottom could be traded out for a dress that goes with the jacket. If you search for "sewing with a plan" in the title the older swap discussions here on pr will come up. ------ Liz thefittinglife.blogspot.com

It may help. Quote: Requirements: 6 tops 4 bottoms 1 jacket All tops must work with all bottoms (remember - you won’t have to look when you get dressed). Jacket must work with all outfits. Dress alternatives: If you want to make dresses, particularly since those are popular this year, here is the option I came up with (which conveniently matches one that was suggested, so I think it has legs): 4 tops 3 bottoms 3 dresses 1 jacket (Actually, if you want to make less than 3 dresses, the order of substitution would be: 1 top for 1st dress, 1 bottom for 2nd dress, 1 top for 3rd dress.) ------ Connie Bontje http://www.couturesmith.com Twitter: Couturesmith Facebook: Connie Bontje Desperately trying to keep ahead of my pattern, fabric and dressform collection!
