Season 30 – Week 1 Results

Checks and Gingham was a fun theme to start out with, and we’re so impressed with everyone’s vision! 

Don’t forget all the Tip Top Pattern is on FLASH sale this week only! No code needed…it’s a steal! Grab it or any others you want to use for sewing along with the season. An amazing prize from Brightside Fabric Co. is up for grabs! (You can use any patterns to sew along, they do not need to be from our shop 🙂 )


The results have been tallied and the winner of Week 1 is:

Amber of Smiley Sue Studio – Timeless Spring Reverie

Here’s what Diana of Raspberry Creek Fabrics, our celebrity guest judge, had to say about the look:

“The layers, the embroidery, the coat! This is Easter and spring perfection with multiple looks when the pinafore is removed. It’s like a mix and match wardrobe, who doesn’t want that?!”

Thank you Diana for contributing as a guest judge this week. As a reminder, 1/3 of the score comes from a guest judge, 1/3 from your vote, and 1/3 from a panel of judges: Alexe St-Germain, Katie Grimm, and Lakeisha Webb, who participate all season. They are all past Project Run & Play contestants, and know exactly what it’s like to be in these designers’ shoes. We are thankful for their contributions!

Congratulations, Amber! What an impressive look, and we’re also so happy that all six designers advance to next week. But next week, the eliminations begin. Be sure to follow along and support your favorite designs. We wouldn’t have as much fun without your participation.
