so....since we only have a few days until this one starts, who is in charge of this one and when can we see the topic running away like the stash reduction topic??

Larisa, ready to roll on this one because DD needs a new Easter dress

Larisa, you do not have to be a paying member to be a contest manager but since contest managers cannot participate in the contests they are managing you may not want to volunteer for this contest. There are other contests which need managers, so if you are interested, please let me know.

Deepika, you can put me down as a potential manager...although I don't know what the contest entails or what the rules are!

Oh this could be good for me to enter! I have a jacket that needs some serious renovation! My DM cut it for me but in a size way too large and stitched it up. I have to totally rip and re-cut! This could be perfect for Easter.

You are on! Thanks for volunteering. Basically as the contest manager heres what you need to do:

1. Decide what the rules of the contest will be and send them to me so I can set up the contest.
2. Create and Manage the Contest message board topic
3. Edit the contest report when requested by the participants. Example change points etc.
4. Finally when the contest is over, declare the winner.

I already have prizes lined up for this contest which I will include in the contest rules.
