I have this year so far found that I will try my best to blog atleast once a week, and to achieve that and to make sure that I don't slack is that I'm going to join the Me-Made-May '15 challenge! And the reason for that is that I still is going for a self-sufficient lifestyle, making my own efforts to an environmentally friendly lifestyle, like growing my on veggies and sewing my own clothes. I just recently bought a second-hand overlock so that I can sew in jersey and therefore sew almost anything! Also, my new mannequin, that I named "Kurt" is helping me in my creations for my Me-Made-Wardrobe.
I have so far sewn a jeans dress, made from 3 pairs of old "man-size"(is that even a word?) jeans, with another dress as guidance. The fit is superb! I really like the dress, and will tweak the pockets soon, as they are starting to unravel at the top edge :(
Moving on to my list of things I'll do my best to complete before Me-Made-May starts!
Refashion:
- Blue/white blouse
- Red shirt
- Black jeans
- Blue jeans
- Grey highwaist skirt
- Plaid pants
- Striped jersey dress
- Black vest cardigan
- Black flower cardigan
- Purple shirt
- Jeans blouse/tunic
Sewing:
- Front pleat top
- Boxy top
- Sheer top
- Easy peasy top
- Easy peasy top (as dress)
- Skirt w/ cellphone pocket
- staple dress
- Reversible shift dress
Done:
- Flower circle skirt
- Jeans dress
So! As I line them up like this, Is looks so overwhelming with all the items, but I thought that is I start with 1 sewing and then one refashion, the list don't seem so long after all, since the refashions go much faster than the ones I sew from scratch.
Also, On the 1:st of april, I can sign up to the challenge and write my pledge here aswell, so until wednesday, you'll have to wait to read it! :)
