Sewing for Competition, Semi-Finalist: Eve Kovacs

This week's post will continue with the IPCA PLARS contest, and semi-finalist, Eve Kovacs.  First, you should know that Eve is no beginner when it comes to sewing for competition.

 She was a finalist in the 2011 Passion for Fashion design contest hosted by the American Sewing Expo (above).

This design with embroidery was created for the Bernina Fashion Show, one of the world's premiere wearable art shows. Eve titled it “Belladonna.”

 A quick "google" of her name, and you will come up with quite a design variety in competition creations

and incredible works of art.

Of course, many carry ribbons. She calls this one “Thai Tutti Frutti”

Her favorite things to sew are jackets, coats, and ensembles, so it's not a surprise that she did just that with the Sew Chic Beatrice pattern, #1310. As is common with wearable art, Eve added seams and plenty of details, mixing several fabric types for a successful "Rock and Roll" edgy and feminine look.

 Here is the pattern she used:
