SWAP deadline - and a giveaway~!

Today is the SWAP deadline. I think i've done pretty well, and am celebrating by adding a little SWAPPING with a pattern giveaway.
** giveaway alert! **
want my Sencha pattern? it isn't a flattering shape for me but maybe you are shaped differently...holler if you want it! tell me..your favorite tea. 
refresher- i was to make 11 wardrobe pieces...2 of a few items and then 3 others. for my first deep spring of sewing, I've had to reorient a few times as fabrics drew me and projects turned me off (i'm talking to you, cap sleeve dress). nonetheless.... WOO! 

2 Blouses     holla!
still seeking TNT pattern- here's my initial survey:
1.  Burda blouse in Green, my first sew weekly submission (and um, only, to date.)
2. Sencha, which I have realized is also my first wadder. previous post lied:  that thing is nasty.
3. Titus "village" blouse. it's a little big, but i used a nice fabric and better technique, and the shape seems like it could be good for lots of fabrics. here's hopin.  (in fact, Mom may get one for Mama's day, it's such a simple shape I think i could fit it to someone miles and miles away.  

stripped down renfrew cowl-i swear it's cute in person.
2 T-Shirts   beep!
1. brown lace
2. minimal cowl- based loosely on the renfrew, but with half the fabric- no sleeves, no cowl lining, no waistband. it's a solid wardrobe staple, thank goodness.

2 Dresses  what what!!
1. cinnamon slip (which has become a nightdress, i'm so femme :p)
oh, hello again
easter dress has a waistband now
2- "easter" dress...is underway but is taking forever~. does not count unless I pull it out.
3- black and white GINGHAM Darling Ranges. I LOVE THIS THING.

2. Skirt     hm.
1. pink half slip. I'm not really into skirts as separates right now (except pencil skirts). but i already have three pencil skirts. Really? that's enough. 
2. is not going to happen.

Coat or Jacket     ye-yeyeah!
1. Minoru rain jacket

i made my own category for undies
cinnamon cami
panties from my own design
slip - maybe the ruby, since i have it printed at home...
bloomers!

looks like i am a winner! are you too? tell me all about it! or tell me you want that Sencha! 

xo bex
