Little Ragamuffin’s 1st Annual Date Night Challenge

*Update with winners – scroll to the bottom*

Hello gorgeous! February’s sewing challenge is upon us! The Date Night challenge is nothing more than an excuse for you to get all dolled up & sew something jaw draping for yourself.

This challenge will run from February 1st-28th giving you a full month to create and take photos. Your work will be voted on so picture quality and creativity is something to keep in mind. If you need help or are looking for some fun new photography tips check out my Picture Perfect blog post.

A few things to note before you get started

You MUST use a Ragamuffin Pattern for your date night look. Using Ragamuffin Fabric is optional, but will earn you an extra entry into the giveaway. This challenge is open to anything YOU consider “date night.” Meaning it doesn’t have to be the traditional little black dress and fancy dinner with flowers and candy. If chillin’ on the couch watching Netflix and garbing your favorite take out is an ideal date night for you, then let’s see it! Heck if hanging out with your friends is date night for you, then go for it have a great time and make sure you create a Ragamuffin look to wear while you’re out with gal pals. Some of us date ourselves, yes this is a thing. If this is you, feel free to share where you go and what you do in your alone time, but make sure you’re wearing something you created with a Ragamuffin pattern.

There is no limit to this challenge except you and your creativity. You can make this challenge as intricate or basic as you wish. You may choose any style you’d like and any fabric you’d like. My shop is full of great options but there is no requirement to use Ragamuffin Fabrics for this challenge.

Let’s take a look at some Date Night examples
