#memademay2019 day 22: feeling super out of sorts because of the construction in my house and also paranoid because my daughter’s school sent home a hand foot and mouth notice 😳😳😳 get me to the weekend please. Glad for MMM today because it gets me motivated to get dressed! Idea for today’s ensemble came from Queen of Layering @kylieandthemachine, who wore an almost identical outfit a few days ago. White linen #louboxtop layered over my #peppermintjumpsuit, perfect for the return of the sun ☀️ ———————— #memademay #mmmay2019 #memademay19 #sewistsofinstagram #inthefolds #sewdiy #handmadeootd #ootd #bayareasewists #ilovesewing #isew

Breaking up my Me Made May grid uniformity with an update on my aforementioned bathing suit project 👙 I haven’t sewn swimwear before so I wanted to start small with kids’ swimwear for my first attempt. My daughter’s suit is the #mairinswimsuit by @sewalittleseam and my son’s is the #chickachickabumbums by @peekaboopatternshop. Swipe to see how I hacked the shorties to be fully lined and reversible! Fabric is from @raspberrycreekfabrics. ————————— #swimwear #sewingswimwear #sewingforkids #peekaboopatternshop #sewalittleseam #isew

#memademay2019 day 21: just out of frame are a bunch of huge rolls of insulation for our upstairs rooms 🙌🏻 on the downside I am spending the day cleaning out my attic, but I’m going to take a break this afternoon to cut out a bathing suit for myself! I am really excited to share the results because of course I made matching suits for my kids too 👯‍♀️ wearing my very first #mandyboattee from years ago and sashiko mended RTW jeans (with my signature chapstick imprint in the pocket 😂) ———————— #memademay #mmmay19 #memademay19 #visiblemending #sashiko #handmadeootd #tessutifabrics #sewing #isew #sewingwithknits #mending

#memademay2019 day 20: rayon challis #roscoeblouse and some patch pocket #persephonepants in white bull denim. Where are my arms? 🤷🏼‍♀️ ———————— #memademay #mmmay19 #memademay19 #memadeootd #memadestyle #isew #truebias #annaallenclothing #jeansmaking #denim #ilovesewing #handmadeootd #handmadestyle

#memademay2019 day 19: rayon challis #justinereadytosew (free pattern!) + Muji blouse, with accidental pioneer vibes. QUESTION: I made this skirt and another rayon version when I was still learning about fabric and how it behaves, and the waistbands of both skirts grows a tiny bit every time I wear them. You can see the strain on the top buttonhole if you zoom in. They started out quite high waisted and now they sit at my hips 😳 I thought I interfaced the waistbands enough but apparently not. How do I fix this?? Open the waistband and insert elastic in the back? I’ve already opened the waistband, cut off the original buttonhole, and gathered the fabric and it just keeps growing. There’s a good 3-5 inches that I would love to cinch in and I just never wear these skirts as much as I want to. ———————— #memademay #mmmay19 #memademay19 #readytosew #memadeootd #memadestyle #memade #handmadeootd #isew

#memademay2019 day 18: dressed for a mini sewing meetup and a girls night so I’m straying from my usual weekday uniform. I made this (free!) #peppermintjumpsuit last spring and was never very satisfied with the generous fit. I finally took in the seams on the hips and through the legs, and hemmed the length so I didn’t have to roll them up and I like it so much more now that I can wear it with different kinds of shoes. Super fun piece for layering; I’ve got it here with a striped #mandyboattee (also free!) and my (apparently) new wardrobe staple #wikstenhaori ———————— #memademay #mmmay19 #memademay19 #memadeootd #memadestyle #isew #tessutifabrics #inthefolds #wiksten
