2017
The entries are flooding in to our Dressmaker of the Year competition and so far we have been blown away by the number of entries - and standard of your handiwork. We launched the competition along with our sister title Make It Today Dressmaker to encourage the stitching community to share their love of sewing and submit a handmade garment. There are four categories to enter - customising, vintage, ready-to-wear and children’s and a whole host of prizes up for grabs that will have your crafty senses tingling. We also have a passionate judging panel who are eager to see your creations - the lovely ladies from The Foldline, Sewing Bee star Stuart Hillard, Sew editor Jennifer Ward and Make It Today Dressmaker editor Sarah Crosland. Entering is super easy, so get your camera at the ready and send your pics to us, pronto! For all of the details, visit www.makeittodayco.uk/dressmakeroftheyear
