Me made me 2023

Some mermaid made 2023 coming to the end and I tried to participate. I didn’t make a public pledge, it was more like a small meat challenge tried to me made out of it every day if possible outcomes are and see what I need what I’m lacking what is too small or too big. Basically where am I made and audit the wardrobe.

I did reach for staff in forever, like one of the dresser for really nicely. That’s the blue Suki dress by Tilly the buttons. Same with my Star Wars dress aka 1st dress I made, it was snug in the summer and fits nicely now!

Same with a cropped Indigo top which I did and we are really bad. I’m wearing it now. I think it’s super cute.

What are the discoveries I do have close. I don’t fit me and it’s fine body changes are normal and physically natural. There was still on the finally got my summer clothes out from the attic, and discovered that one of the favourite dress is only worn once doesn’t fit anymore! But that wasn’t a me made.

Another discovery, I made that SoZoe undies are the most comfortable pants I own. I reach to them every time and already cut out and start sewing more pairs. Sorry no pics! 

I also have nowhere nice to take a picture. Really need to finish tidying and decorating the house.

And the fabric I buy is all very flamboyant and with pattern and I probably need to get some plain fabric and garments that go together without pattern clash. It’s not really me. The first photo is all I’ll go get some jerseys and linens and make some T-shirts yeah! But I’ve  never before made any I’m not sure how quickly can make one and I didn’t want to buy new fabrics just yet and on a whim as I have enough in my stash for now. So I went to my local charity shops with hope dining some plain tops and the pre-loved universe delivered. I’ve bought several tops that are good quality last couple of seasons and give money charity, win win! 

I also seen some more items that are missing. I really enjoy wearing pijamas (that fairly new thing, since little Grayson arrived, I used to be a tee in bed kind of person) so exploring what I can make. 

Currently I m in my Sofiya trousers (but they have a tiny hole, joys of vintage fabric) so I will make more trousers and shorts! 

Sofiya shorts. But ones I want to make (hope I have enough fabic) will be form cute African wax print. 

And here are the trousers! I m planning a stripy pair with shorter leg length for summer. 

So here we are happy end of me made may! Hope you have learnt things!
