You know what, I honestly think I might finally have cracked sewing productivity, and over the past couple of months have managed to make one easy (knit) garment a week. It comes down to planning, folks. Simple as that. Last month I took the time to plan out some things I wanted to make in the month ahead, and I achieved most of them! Here’s last month’s post, in case you’re wondering.
I’ve also done a bit of housekeeping on the blog and have finally added a few static pages. You can see them in the blog sidebar. There’s a contact page, a few pages with each year’s blogged makes linked with handy pictures, and another ego-trip page all about me. That last one features a pic of a teenage me modelling the first item of clothing I ever made, back in the 90s. Oh dear. Fashion disaster!
March makes:
I’ve already blogged a couple of my March makes, although most of my March blogging was playing catch up on the first couple of months of the year.
L-R: Craftsy tee, Daisy’s dress
And the next two projects are completed but not yet blogged:
L-R: Seamwork Aurora top, Sew Over It Heather dress
I did also work on the velvet top refashion, but it didn’t work out well. There might be a post in that at some point, if I can finish it off so Daisy can wear it.
Money spent: £15.56
£10.78 for some ponte for making a Heather Dress
$6.00 Seamwork subscription (approx £4.78)
Pretty thrifty month. Yay for using up stash fabrics!
