As Host of this Iron-Chef-type competition, I have provided each "duel" a specific prompt (read those here) and present the resulting projects for readers to vote on based on the following criteria:

5 Points for Technique. Do garment(s) reflect a strong knowledge of the fabrics used, and the methods and tools use to sew them?
5 Points for Creativity. Do garment(s) relate to the given prompt, and showcase the unique talents of the sewist?
5 Points for Presentation. Quality photography is key, as is an overall vision for presenting finished work.

Participants receive 10 points automatically for meeting deadlines.

Please vote for each challenger, and every category. Max of 5 stars, 5 is highest.
Challengers will receive an average score for each category, and an average score overall. (You can see an example here)
Your votes help each challenger recognize areas that they can improve their craft, and celebrate those areas that they already excel.
As such, please cast votes for each contestant only once. Admittedly, I cannot enforce this, but the objective is for each contestant to receive a thoughtful rating, not skewed scores.
It is SUPER DUPER NERVE-WRACKING to put work on display for others to judge, so let's remember to leave some love and encouragement for our challengers in the comments!
