Im stuck on which time I want to do...there are so many, but Im thinking about Napoleon, or Marlene Dietrich...

[two months off]

wow, this is such a great idea! Can't wait to get started on this.

I would like to join if possible. Do we actually sew and take pistures of the design or just scan or sketches? *Was the due date yesterday or following friday?*

[cutxpaste]

This is a very intriguing idea- - I'll definetly stick around and look at all of your amazing sketches!

I hope it's drawings! And the date would definitely be next Friday, and every Friday after that.

^ it can be whatever you want!

[poesy]

So we can post them here when we're done with them? How many outfits do we make? Just one, right?

this is fun!

[Ceptuouse]

^ you post it here when your done, I guess you could do more than one if you want, but you dont have to...then the previous winner (Cosette is starting) - will pick a winner... Im just going to get my scanner working and then Ill post my picture

[Ceptuouse]

Done, so here is my picture...



I decided that I wanted to design something from the French Revolution Period, and I just loved the Style of Napoleon and I found the most extravagant picture of him on a horse which I knew i had to use for inspiration...So the period of my design would be the 1800's. My design has a blue jacket with gold embroidery, one glove, with mustard trousers, red drape, and a white chiffon silk with a gold bottom....

I just finished my sketches. I think Friday is too much time to come up with sketches. Shouldn't we shorten it to like every 2~3 days. I'm connecting my scanner so I can post the sketches now. Do we also prepare a persentation? (Like a paragraph explaining our sketch) I kinda also know who it is that is currently in the competition.

[Ceptuouse]

^ I added a small paragraph on mine

Excellent idea JR1!! And Cosette, that's a great theme!! JR1, how was the encyclopaedia??

[Ceptuouse]

^ It didnt really help me...but I was looking for the Renaissance period, and It came with some of these pictures...Before the Napoleon theme, I went through about 20 others including Marlene Dietrich/20's/60's/Reformation!

[titania]

I'm so slow !! JR1, I love that period!! And the picture of Napoleon is very nice. Your design is very interesting..... I just love that big splash of red !!

[Sieriyu]

I finished mines. My scanner down so I took pictures of the sketches. I was going for a Victorian type of Theme. Like during the Declaration of Independence Era. I wanted to have shades of peaches and purples. Overall I like it, not Love it.
