When Julie told me I had won first place, you could have knocked me over with a feather. I actually hooted and hollered and did a little happy dance around the room. I think my husband and my dog thought it was finally time to call in professional help. I cannot tell you how honoured I am to be one of the top SWAPs chosen from amongst a group of spectacular entries. The level of sewing prowess displayed this year was awe-inspiring.
Once again, thank you to everyone that made a kind comment to me along the way and a special thanks to Julie for undertaking this contest.

Congratulations! Your swap pieces are beautiful and it was a treat to be able to view the progress as you created them.
Congratulations!!
Congratulations. I just discovered your blog. Your SWAP garments are amazing and inspiring, and you fully deserved that first place. I'm a big sucker for vintage garments and full skirts in particular. You have great talent and vision.
Well done! I had a look at all the Swap entries and liked yours best. I am envious of all those swingy skirts.
Swap is an inspiring idea, but as I work in a divecentre then I am trying to work out how I can make it work for me. Do you think bikinis count as bottoms and tops?
Well done again.
Congrats! It is a well deserved win. Your garments are just beautiful. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
Your SWAP is magnificent - it's something I would have made for myself! Enjoy all that new fabric - you've worked hard to earn it.
Madame C - Absolutely, a swimsuit SWAP would be very cool! You could do all sorts of different swim tops and bottoms and a cover up coat/jacket!
Happy birthday, Shannon!
