Each participant will receive an identical Kit that contains a selection of fabrics, notions, and some surprises. Participants then have one month to transform these raw materials in to a garment or work of art. Every thing in the Kit must be represented in the finished piece in some form, but no additional materials may be added. You are free to make any thing; there are absolutely no restrictions. This is not a contest and people of all skill levels are welcome. Last year 51 people participated in the project.Bias will be having a fashion show on the opening night of the works festival to show the wearable pieces. Then the collection will be on exhibit as part of The Works Festival. We will also document the finished Kits and publish a small book that has a picture of every piece and bit of information about each participated.
