It was a fabulous turnout for Designin’ December 2019! So many people told me they wanted to vote for ALL the Sewists – why did they have to choose just a few! But don’t worry, everyone did so well, and you were all within points of each other!
This Designin’ December we had 21 Sewists with 24 Designer Copies! A new record … and yes … too many to pick just one or two favourites! I thank you all for planning and sewing and joining in, and a special thank you to all those in the audience who followed along and voted! Of course, where would we be without out our PRIZE SPONSORS who gave so generously! 🎉🕺💃🎊
Everyone had the chance to vote for their favourites on my blog or on my IG. The likes on my IG for each garment were easy to see and count, but I left it up to Crowdsignal to do the poll for my blog. Worked out fabulously! Some Sewists made two Designer Copies and both received votes, giving them a second chance to be in the top 14 to qualify for a prize. (Yes! there are 14 prizes!) In the end though, it was still one prize per talented sewist.
Our generous PRIZE SPONSORS donated a total of 14 prizes:
