Self-Stitched September – halfway through

Day 17

When I joined Me-Made May back in April, I didn´t have a clue about how it was going to change my whole sewing experience. I had no idea that there were so many fantastic people out  there, sewing beautiful and creative stuff, writing interesting and thought provoking blogs, and supporting each other in a way that is just amazing!

Day 8

Some bloggers are newbies, and are sewing up some of their first garments, others have been sewing since they were little, and have no trouble pulling together outfits for Self- Stitched September.

Day 10

For MMM I chose the light version, as I didnt think I had enough stuff for an entire outfit. I have done a lot of sewing since then, and signed up for the full version of SSS. Man! It´s not as easy as I thought. There are a few key items that´s missing from my wardrobe.

Day 13

• A grey, black or navy full sleeved  cotton cardigan. I have knitted two cardis, but both have 3/4- length sleeves, and they are knitted in mohair, which means they tend to get a bit too warm…
• A few more easy- to- wear tops. The tops I have made gets a heavy rotation, and I need to launder more often than I am used to.
• A practical autumn jacket. I have one on the sewing table, still not finished. I must snap to it!

Day 15

To round up, I feel that joining in on the online sewing fun has been a huge step for my sewing, and if it hadn´t been for all of you amazing seamstresses, I would have still been sewing up stuff I didn’t need. So I guess what I´m saying is: thank you!
