I’ve finally realised who it is that Lizzie reminds me of - Kerry Godliman.

None have used contrasting waistbands but the drawn one did.

First impressions - they're all shit

Couldn't have put it better myself.

Gawd all horrid and as for the bow 🙈

Bouledeneige · 21/06/2023 21:13

I think they should have let them make their own appliqué templates. The shapes are dull.

littlbrowndog · 21/06/2023 21:14

No sane woman would wear this

100% this.

Binglebong · 21/06/2023 21:14

They are at least better than the example.

Emotionalsupportviper · 21/06/2023 21:14

Do they have to buy their own materiel?

What a waste!

Bouledeneige · 21/06/2023 21:14

Fauvism and other abstract art movements would have more triangles, shards, trapezoids etc.

Zig zag is usual because you stop fraying. But you can use something like felt and attach it invisibly. Iron on interfacing helps too.

If I do it (rarely!) I tend to use a far shorter stitch so it just looks like a fat outline.

Hmm, shame, I think the zig zags here look bad.

Those skirts look like an article from Woman’s Realm circa 1961 telling housewives how to freshen up their dull wardrobes with scraps from John Lewis’ fabric remnants.

Bouledeneige · 21/06/2023 21:15

the Grey one is horrible

NutellaEllaElla · 21/06/2023 21:15

The applique has wrinkled the main fabric too, looks shoddy.

Bouledeneige · 21/06/2023 21:15

Don't like the pinky lilac

littlbrowndog · 21/06/2023 21:15

All of them are horrible

NashvilleQueen · 21/06/2023 21:16

Massive waste of nice fabric.

Binglebong · 21/06/2023 21:17

This is more usual. They have all done quite long stitch to save time.

This is ridiculous.

Jumped the shark?

MouseMinge · 21/06/2023 21:19

I'm not sure why Lizzie is so shocked. It was clear from the feedback that she was going to come out on top.

NashvilleQueen · 21/06/2023 21:19

AND Sara is irritating me with her lame jokes. I am grumpy tonight. After the ridiculous crochet week I was hoping things were back on track.

Bouledeneige · 21/06/2023 21:20

I had a dress made out of painted canvas when I was a student.... Neon and black

viques · 21/06/2023 21:20

Oh please. What a ridiculous challenge. Who wants to wear stiff itchy canvas shedding scraps of paint as it rubs your skin raw.

Depends how it’s been edited maybe?

I feel like Tony is in trouble this week
