What a month!!! Sewing inspiration at its finest, if we do say so ourselves!!
The month’s challenge?? “Flip this Pattern” using the Oliver and S Roller Skate Dress / Tunic and create a look that was interesting, unique, and inspiring.
While the three contestants all brought their own interpretation of how to flip this pattern to the competition, the sew-along group offered some amazing entries as well. They were, of course, playing for a pretty awesome prize package.
There was literally something for everyone in the sew-along group: embellishments, creative uses of pattern pieces, color-blocking, seasonal sewing, maxi dresses, cover-ups, reversible garments, costumes, designer knock-offs, and some definite thinking outside of the box! As an added bonus, many of these creations included detailed tutorials of how their “flip” was created. Take a moment to visit some of these pages, and give the “ladies behind the scenes” some virtual praise for their accomplishments!
As for the three contestants’ “FLIPS”….you’ve seen them already, but here they are again…in the order of their “Flipped Appearance.”
As for the competitor winner? That is entirely up to you! Remember, there is a fabulous prize package on the line….waiting to be claimed….and it is ALL based on popular vote!!
Voting will remain open until Sunday, July 21 at 11:00 PM CST. One vote per person during that time frame, and ongoing results will be hidden from the public. We felt that this kept with the purpose of this series – building one another up through sewing inspiration instead of becoming a cut-throat sewing competition of sorts.
Winners, for both the guest contributors and sew-along participants, will be announced Tuesday! *And, yes….”Father’s Fantastic Five” will also be revealed at that time….

I noticed that all 3 of us used white and blue in our creations, yet they all turned out totally different.
Last month it was eyelet!!! And, again, such varying used of it.. WONDERFUL JOB BY ALL!
Great job to everyone!!!
So hard to choose…you ladies really knocked this one out of the park!
They are all so clever and beautiful and different that it’s going to be a close vote, I think. Thanks for sharing all of these wonderful creations with us!
I love seeing how the same pattern can be used to make such totally different outfits. ~Major Moma
Such a great month of flipping. I think I’m getting more excited about this year of flips as we go along
