Gordana's gown is absolutely gorgeous, but it seems as though there is more going on than judging the items made for the challenge, at this point. Irina's dress does not seem very flattering & Carol Hannah's dress, while lovely in the drawing, does not seem to move well with the model. All in all, though I have to agree that, as much as I love LA, it was not a very interesting season.

I love Project Runway! I missed the first episode, so sad. Judging from the photos, I have to agree with the judges, though as far as who got sent home, there are some close seconds. Some of the designs are a bit bland & others are just not right for the red carpet. Some great looks, some near misses & others that don't quite work, typical for any group of designers. Can't wait to see what in store for the rest of the season! There's something interesting in every episode.

Maybe it's the pretty butterflies (I'm a sucker for shiny, pretty things), but I think that I like Little Rachel's dress the best. I like the retro feel of Gertie's dress & admire the construction work of AthenaWaves dress, but my vote goes to Little Rachel. All of the entries are lovely.

Cute idea! I love old maps (& bangles). Thanks for the article!

I'm always looking for new, stylish things to make, so this would be perfect!

Amazing things that I would have never thought of making with video tape! Great article! Thank you, Diane! I might have to try the bracelet! (I'll have to start with a less enjoyable film than "The Princess Bride" though, even if it is a VHS)

Most of the things that I make have been re purposed from more than one source, so this would be a perfect book for me. I love the cover photo, by the way!

Yes, for me it's the people who say "Oh, I can do that" or...well I won't go there. The lack of space thing too & yeah, pretty much everything else on the list!Yikes...

Too cute & so simple, what a great idea! Thanks for trying out the different methods for us! Thanks for the article.

Very cute buttons! I recently started making embroidered buttons too! So much fun! I like the idea of using thrift store fabrics, giving them new life. Thanks for sharing your project!

Sounds awesome! Not your average sewing book! I'd love a copy of my own!

Cute tags!

Thank you so much TaDaBoutique! I love making things & rarely revisit a design (I think some call this ADD!)

So many buttons, so little time! I love buttons & have a huge # of them that I use & re-use in a variety of projects! I always save the buttons, when nothing else is worth saving on old clothes! This book sounds great, I'm always looking for more ideas! Thank you Susan Beal! (love the red button necklace, by the way)

Very cool!

Cute idea!

I love this idea! It's very current, in terms of style & the directions are easy to follow (unlike many other origami directions). Thanks for sharing!

Very cute!

Lovely! I need to do this with my whole house (& then prevent my husband & son from dumping more stuff on the arrangements). The book does sound helpful. Nice article!

These are very pretty! I'll have to check out her shop. I wonder how they're made?

Cute idea for buttons & simple to make!

Even if I didn't have old sweaters lying about, I might just have to go to a local thrift store & pick some up for this! Thanks for sharing!

So cute that I had to immediately go to the site for a look! There are some nice, simple & very cute ideas there. Thanks for letting us know about it!

Cute bag & it looks fairly simple to make! I'll have to try it out.

I love the little stuffie/doll!

This is very cute! Sort of retro & lady like, but new at the same time.
