My daughter wanted a satin slip dress, so I set about drafting a pattern for her. I purchased some satin in one of my patterns from Spoonflower: It started out with more of a fitted top, but I didn’t think that it was going to fit correctly, so will draft a different version…eventually. I gathered […]
I decided to try to do an outfit post to show how I wear my Me Mades on a daily basis. This might be a bit intermittent depending on how much time I have to take pictures in the morning. I usually wear at least one Me Made per day. This will also give me […]
I have been wanting to make this cardigan for quite awhile. It wasn’t the color I would choose, but I loved the flounces. This would have to be flounces and not ruffles, as the gathering would make it horrendous to sew the seams. My plan of attack was to use the WBM basic t-shirt and […]
A few groups have rounds opening this week, so I was super busy again making clothes for my little fashionista. I decided to focus on fall items, since we will be winding up summer here pretty soon. This fabric is from the Horror/Plaid round at RP Custom fabrics and will start running on August 20. […]
Every 6 months or so I am invited by a friend to her CAbi party. I really do like the clothes, but in my opinion, they have gone down in quality over the years. The last pair of overpriced pants I bought from them stretched out so very, very much and had poor recovery. So…not […]
Here is another maxi skirt and top that I made. Super comfy for summertime! The skirt is a bit…thin, though. I should not be standing in front of a light source in this because it is see through. When it cools down I can wear a slip, but right now it is far to warm […]
I know, I know…I failed miserably at taking pictures for Me Made May. I did, however, wear my clothes I made for a good 5 or 6 days each week. It’s not hard when you make a lot of your own clothes. I have been pretty busy with the kids’ summer sports, so I have […]
This weekend I don’t think I really wore anything I made, so I broke my streak! I did sign up for 5 of 7 days, so it’s all good. This was a dreary rainy day, so black was in order! We are slowly, slowly warming up around these parts. Yesterday I spent the day outside […]
Finally Friday! Yay! I know this is supposed to be a “theme day” for MMM, but I couldn’t do the “too pretty for pants” theme. I had a chiropractor appointment this day, and I need to wear pants for that! I shouldn’t have worn heels as my back was not happy with me anyways, but […]
I love how easy dresses are to wear! This is a dress I made this winter, and I threw it on with a little knit jacket that I purchased. We are still on the cool side here, so I needed to have some warmth. I haven’t put my boots away yet, either. I actually just […]
