I was really on the fence about joining Me-Made-May this year. I do not have a great collection of me-made items to fill up a month’s worth of wear and I did not want to do the same exact challenge that I did last year (1 item a week). However, I did want to join in on the fun and deadlines seems to be great motivation for me, so I am caving in. I have some project lined up, that should be quick
I, Trice of Sewtell (sewtell.wordpress.com), sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May ’13. I endeavor to wear me-made garments twice a week for the duration of May 2013.
I am planning to post here once a week on what I wore and probably will be posting on instagram, twitter and maybe flickr the day I wear my Me-Made garment.
Is there anyone else planning to do Me-Made-May?
I wish I had enough pieces to be able to join. Haha. I only have the two dresses so far. Maybe if I tried making one garment a week? That actually sounds like an idea there… thanks!
I can’t wait to see what you choose to wear! 😀
Last year I did one garment a week. I made two in time to complete the month. Perhaps you can try that. I have several tops I want to complete for this month.
If you can do it, I am sure I can make myself do it, too! Are you still working on that Collette pattern? I think that was the one you mentioned on Instagram?
Yes, need to finish the neck and the armholes. The Self-made bias tape is giving me problems. The second top I will use packaged bias tape.
I didn’t even know ‘self-made’ bias tape was even possible until about a month ago! Haha. I’m such a noob! There is no way, with or without packed bias tape that they cannot come out any less than fabulous. 😀 I cannot wait to see your unveiling of them!
I’m not planning to do it this year – I was sick for most of April and my sewing was on hold. I will be cheering you on though….
Thank you 🙂
I’m on it this year too! Probably just posting pix once a week on d blog, and will try to do so daily on Flickr. Hope to do better than last yr! 🙂 look fwd to see what u gonna share..
ahem. you been working on those fancy bras yet? won’t they count too?
*cough* ahem. See what had happen was….
