A Look Back at Refashion Runway Season Two

Today is the big day, and the winners of this season's Refashion Runway have been revealed.  Congratulations are in order for my fellow contestants:

Susan... Second Chances by Susan
 Carissa... Carissa Knits
Desarae... Gladness of Heart 
Magda... House of Estrela
Joelle... The Eco Wardrobe Warrior
Deanna...Wedding Dress Blue 

Each week I was amazed at their ingenuity and tenacity.  It was a steep competition, and I'm so thankful that I had the opportunity to participate alongside such talented ladies.  Undoubtedly, they will continue to inspire and create, and I'm so excited to see what they will do next.

Congratulations are also in order for Beth (The Renegade Seamstress), who has done a fabulous job organizing and producing Refashion Runway Season Two.  This unbelievably talented lady has inspired so many.  

I had two goals for this contest - to make it through the first week and to challenge myself to try new sewing techniques.  I never imagined I would win First Runner Up!  I cannot tell you how thankful I am for your support.  Mahalo nui loa for your kind words and votes.

I definitely would not have been able to produce a quality piece each week if it were not for my amazingly supportive husband and sister.  My husband stepped in to help out at home when I needed more time, encouraged me when I was so unsure of myself, and photographed all of my outfits.  My sister was there to provide support and advice on those early mornings where I just didn't think I could finish in time.  I was blessed throughout this process.

Here's a look back at my wonderful Refashion Runway Season Two experience.
