My favorite is planetjune’s classy strapless dress – it was simple and practical – which is my philosophy of reconstructing.

Second – not so boring blazer – practical and again the essence of reconstructing, to me.

Third is corpgoth – it is incredible, but also very intricate and was time intensive, I’m sure.

I didn’t have too much trouble figuring this deadline out. In fact, the only reason I entered was because it was extended a couple days! I really appreciate the heads up (on the deadlines,) it helps to keep me on track!

(I too, would LOVE a countdown clock on the Whiplash page! I think it’s just a javascript code, but I’m not familiar with your site code and how it works.)

The corpgoth jacket is an amazing transformation and great workmanship. And the craft:skirt is a lovely embellishment.

My concern with the deadline is not just the date (I usually guess the 14th or 15th) but because I am such a procrastinator I am also concerned about when that date is officially over since we are all around the world. I would love an absolute deadline timewise so I’m not worried that I’m going to miss it or rushing for no reason. Would a countdown clock on the whiplash page be very difficult?

My favourites are the Back to school outfit (Mo) and the Little Red Dress tutorial (Muppinstuff2)

I would very much like the deadline to be a certain date, I get confused by the weeks. And I love that there are two weeks rather than 3-4 days, that makes it more possible to finish something.

Equally fabulous is the amazing tutorial for that super sweet shirt of sew-mad. It’s fantastically illustrated and I think it really could make me overcome my fear of sewing a shirt, the explanations are great.
