Well, I've never entered a challenge or sew-a-long before so when I realised I wasn't out of time for this one I was delighted that I still had time to be a part of it!
The Me Made May challenge is about not just making, but wearing clothes that you have made and you already have in your wardrobe and integrating them into your everyday wear for the whole of May. I must admit I have a few things that haven't seen an airing for a while, so it got me to thinking - could I dig them out and see how they fit into my current wearing style?
This sewing event is organised by Zoe of sozowhatdoyouknow and is who's just down the road from me in Brighton and it looks like there'll be heap of talent to spot from all over the globe.
Watch out for photos via blogs and Pinterest which has been set up by Jennifer of Jennifer Lauren Vintage There's also a Flickr page too. Shown here is a little taster from me ............
Not sure when I created these two or the patterns I used as they were made quite some years ago......
Happy sewing

DeleteI'm really looking forward to MMM and seeing sewers celebrate their creations :) Good luck with your challenge!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ladystitcher. I'm looking forward to seeing lots of lovely makes too.
DeleteHave fun with MMM! I would participate but I have to wear a uniform 5 days a week and I don't think I have quite enough handmade items. Maybe next year.
ReplyDeleteAww Zoe, that's a shame. Couldn't your challenge to be to wear one garment at the weekends? Happy sewing when you get going anyway.
ReplyDeleteI did MMM last year and decided to give it another whirl. Look forward to your posts.
