Burda Wrap Top 03-2012-121

I have finished the first garment on my list! Or, to be more accurate, I ´ve finished the fifth garment on my list. I warned you, I might jump and not start at the very beginning (although my Mathilde blouse is already cut and interfaced and all ready to go). I´ve had this small piece…

Almost an outfit. Most definitely a Sewalong.

Just so you know, this post is lenghty. 🙂 What went wrong with this outfit?  Can you spot what´s wrong with this outfit? (Except for the fact that it is in no way weather appropriate right now up here).  No? Let me help you:       The shirt So. Most everything that could go…

Some FO skirts and pictures from a journey.

If you are wondering about the recent radio silence from this channel, then let me explain why, using pictures.

Where I´m at.

If anyone´s wondering where I am at, check out the Me-Made-May 2012 flickr group, and there you´ll find me! I thought I´d share some of my outfits with you here on the blog as well, and I´ve put together a collage of the first couple of weeks. If you click on the image it´ll take…

An update might be in order.

During the last couple of months I haven´t been able to show you much of anything I´ve been sewing. Because I have a neck problem, my computer time has been limited for work only, but I am slowly getting better, and hope to return to “regular schedule” during the next couple of months.
