New season of Project Runway starts tonight.
 
I really like this show, I think for the sewing. The designers are amazing and have such creative ideas. Of course I'd never wear anything they designed. LOL

Thanks for the reminder. Last week was the introduction as we got to "meet" the designers. Did you see it? I have been watching this show for many seasons with my DD. Love it...it just amazes me that anyone can create garments is such a short amount of time. I've tried garment sewing and have made a few things, but not usually easily or successfully. I am in awe of the talent they have :-)

I watched the preview of the designers. Some I liked right off, some were too odd but will probably make good tv.

Thanks for posting this. I haven't seen the show in a couple of years; it was always interesting to see how the designers solved the challenges, and never interesting to see the drama in the workroom.

Who knows? They may come up with something for you yet!

One of my favorite tv shows.

Thanks for the reminder. It looks like some interesting designers.

I have watched it. I am always interested in the sewing machines and sergers more than the designs!!

I would love to see it without commercials. Even TVo'ing is annoying because there is so much commercial time to fast forward through.

Kassaundra 08-17-2017 04:58 PM

Well I have picked out some favorites going in. My favorite is the older blonde woman w/ the tornado shaped hair. I think second is the woman w/ the multicolor curly hair. Then I like the woman that made the black and white outfits to represent emotion, and the little Japanese man that looks like a boy.

Watched that show once...put it on the list with survivor, big brother, bachelorette, and all the other phony reality shows shows that are on tv....never to be watched again....

fruitloop, since they have all sizes of models this year, maybe we CAN think about wearing something they design! I thought the winning dress last night was lovely (but I do love orange and large prints, so maybe that's why). Those twins have got to GO soon or I will be muting and un-muting my tv throughout the show! They are so annoying.

Thanks for the reminder! I like watching it too and seeing what they create.

Kassaundra 08-18-2017 10:02 AM

I agreed w/ the winner and the one sent home this week. But I knew he was going to be the first to go from the interview in last weeks episode.

Kassaundra 08-18-2017 10:03 AM

Oh and I LOVE the new models this year!

baskets4moo 08-18-2017 10:27 AM

Amazing how we all think alike :thumbup:
1. I cannot watch it in "real time", I always record & fast-forward thru the commercials.
2. The twins have got to go soon!
3. How in goodness gracious did Chacha get on in the first place??? IMHO Mondo most have hoped he'd get a mini-me
And, real girls for models? Amazing! Can't wait for next week.

Can't watch anything else during the baseball season. Go Yankees! :D (I'm rabid)

I have been watching this show for years and years. Even my husband will sit down and watch this with me. I'm always amazed at how fast the designers are. Of course my favorite is Tim Gunn. I love the fact that they have all kinds of different sized models and they will be changing designs ever week. It is about time this happened. We need to start a thread each week for Project Runway, perhaps calling it "Can you believe that?"

I watched it. I liked the Japanese guy's design the best. It was very nice and flowing. He is my favorite so far. I won't give up going somewhere to watch it but if I'm home then it's a fun hour to do some hand sewn binding.

Kassaundra 08-19-2017 12:40 PM

We live stream, so I don't give up anything to watch a show (even Doctor Who) we watch when we want to.

When I stream Lifetime channel it won't let me forward through the commercials! There isn't any tv show that I make a point of having to watch. If it's on and I'm there then I watch it.
