Survey says?

I'm a little perplexed on how to go one here, and so I shall tap the Hive Mind.

I have, so far, no takers for my smocking class. The description DOES say to please contact instructor regarding kits, though a few may be available the day of. BUT - I'm not sure how many people read the descriptions at all, at least prior to the event.

I was planning on taking just a couple extras, meaning to have "custom" kits togther for those who asked. How many kits should I bring? (Kit is all pieces of muslin for a finished shirt/chemise, sewn up as necessary for pleating and pre-pleated for work. Assembly instructions included.) The kit can be made up for a high necked version, open necked version, or with a separate, smocked, standing collar. But they do take me a bit of work. 2 of each?

The same applies to the Picture Perfect competition. I plan to forward a registration form to Sarafina and hopefully someone in the host group can arrange to accept entries if they show up before I arrive. But I only know of one planned entry. Thoughts on how many people will show up at the last minute?

That IS a tough one. I suspect there will be 4-6 folks who decide at the event to take the class. Some people don't want to commit to a 2 hour class, especially when there are SO many classes to take. And some will wander in with a friend and want to participate. But there will be a fair number of folks there that are into costuming and might want to play, so I doubt that you will be completely stood up :-)

I have no idea on the Picture Perfect competition, either. I suspect there will be 2-3 more (provided I get mine done in time :-P) that will show up, because they already had something done that fits the description.
