...the "Over The Top - 15 Day Challenge" has turned into "The Bottoms up 15 Day Challenge." It is always kinda hard to go back and recap a challenge, but here are the estimated Top's Challenge Stats:
- 26 people joined Over The Top - 15 Day Challenge (April 1 - 15)
- 18 people have participated so far; I say "so far" because some people mentioned they are still making tops, and I hope they will still post the results.
- 59 Blog Posts
- 57 New Tops posted (includes one re-fashion if I am correct); and Danielle's (3) tops because she has not been able to post pictures yet.
- OVER ALL RESULTS: Quite impressive if I might say so myself .
A "BOTTOMS UP - 15 DAY CHALLENGE" seems to be a natural progression of
"THE OVER THE TOP - 15 DAY CHALLENGE"
April 16 - April 30 has been proclaimed an official BOTTOM'S UP CHALLENGE. It's a simple sew-a-long that will last only 15 days. Here's the criteria:
- Sew up or re-fashion the number of bottoms to your liking. One, two or three - whatever your schedule allows.
•No limits;
- Skirts, skorts, pants, slacks, trousers, yoga pants, shorts etc. all qualify - top also, if that's what you'd like.
- Post your reviews, comments, tutorials and any other bottoms information you'd like to share on the "OVER THE TOP aka BOTTOM'S UP" blog.
- If you previously signed up for Over the Top challenge and are interested, you are already in - just go to work on bottoms on April 16th.
- If you previously signed up for Over the Top Challenge and are not interested - do nothing.
- If you didn't sign up originally but want to for this half of the challenge - let me know by commenting on THIS POST AND LEAVING YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS.
- NOTE: Email address are a must for new joiners.
I'm looking forward sharing, and seeing your Over The Top/Bottoms Up spring/summer creations. It's such a win, win situation.....
Thanks, Faye, for putting all this together. I haven't to keep up with the blogging but I do have two tops that were finished that I need to post then on to the bottoms!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I think I want to sign up since I am trying to sew for myself again after all these years. I truly NEED some tops more than I do bottoms, so that's what I'll concentrate on right now, if that's ok.
ReplyDeletegranmommaj@gmail.com is my email address.
Is this all I do?

I'm in awe of the fact that now you've all made tops that you are flipping the script and making bottoms! What a great way to insure that you have a complete outfit to wear!
ReplyDeleteI love your sew along style! So free and easy. Makes everyone feel like they're participating (even if only by watching). My T shirt experiment is off to a VERY slow start.
ReplyDeleteIt's a rainy day here, so bottoms up is perfect for me!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy! Can't wait to see the results.
ReplyDeleteI missed the top challenge, but I'll be joining you in the bottoms up challenge, I have two pants to make for my aunt and I'm a beginner so it might take me all 15 days to make both if not just one lol
ReplyDeleteoops, my address is topseekrit at gmail dot com

ReplyDeleteI think I'd like to join up for this part. With a goal, I'll try to get 2 pairs done in the timeframe.
