Round Robin Garments
Pacific
Northwest Needle Arts Guild
Wearable
Art Study Group (Evening)
Starting in September 1996, each participant
filled a box with the fabric and notions of her choice, plus pattern pieces
cut to fit herself. The box rotated among the participants, and each
embellished a pattern piece. The owner constructed the garment from
the embellished pieces, then modeled the completed work at the fashion
show held at the May 1997 General Meeting.
Challenges include trusting your fabric
to others, working with others' taste in fabric, harmonizing your work
with previously embellished pattern pieces, and finishing on time!
Owners are allowed to specify a theme for the garment, to suggest techniques,
and to express preferences. Participants are allowed to make minor
additions to the given materials. Owners are allowed to modify the
embellished pattern pieces.
