The last garment I finished before my trip was a #zadiejumpsuit (my July project) and just like everyone has been raving, it’s a great pattern! The longest part of the process was tracing and cutting it flat and doing research beforehand about what mods I might need to make. I threw caution to the wind and only made a couple alterations for my first attempt: adding 2” to the length of the pants, and sewing the back pleats into darts (that helped me to eliminate the poofiness that others mentioned though I forgot to take a pic of the back view). My husband told me, “I love this jumpsuit on you! It reminds me of the jumpsuits my grandpa used to wear” 👴🏻🤷🏼‍♀️ ————————— Pattern: #zadiejumpsuit by @paper_theory Fabric: medium weight denim/linen blend from @robertkaufman ————————— #sewing #isew #millennialsewing #ilovesewing #sewcialists #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialistsofinstagram #sewhannmade #sewingismysuperpower #sewsewsew #sewingpatterns #indiepatterns #robertkaufman #papertheorypatterns #memade #memadeootd #thanksimadeit #memadewardrobe

My #v9253 in the wild! I love this dress. It was about a million degrees and humid on Saturday night and everyone dancing under the tent looked like they’d taken a sweat bath (sorry, no pics of that 😂) but the rayon tried its best to keep me ventilated 😅 ————————— #isew #sewing #sewingdresses #ilovesewing #sewingismysuperpower #sewcialists #sewcialistsofinstagram #millennialsewing #memade #thanksimadeit #sewhannmade #youcanhackit

For real do not remember the last time I got to lay out on the sand and not have to make sure a small child wasn’t making a mad dash to the water 🤔 ———————— #seabrightswimmer #isew #isewmyownclothes #sewingswimwear #memade #memadeholiday #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialistsofinstagram #sewcialists #makersgonnamake #sewing #ilovesewing #fridaypatterncompany #sewhannmade

I’ve been on trains for the past seven hours 🙅🏼‍♀️ but at least I looked cute in my new favorite #fringedresspattern hack! 💁🏼‍♀️ I knew I wanted to make a woven summer top but with some more fun details to elevate it so I took a cue from the many cute top hacks I’ve seen on IG this summer (check out @athreadthatbinds, @thedoingthingsblog and @themindfulsewist) and gave it my own spin with ruffled sleeves. I bookmarked the ruffle cuff hack idea from @sewinglikemad ages ago and am so happy I finally got a chance to use it! Like the old saying goes, it takes a village to sew a garment... 😉 ————————— Pattern: #fringedresspattern by @chalkandnotch Fabric: rainbow striped linen from @maisoncousu purchased on a trip to Paris last summer (only one meter, which I’m kicking myself for but hey look how much I could make with one meter) and wooden buttons from @harts_fabric ————————— #sewing #ilovesewing #sewcialists #sewcialistsofinstagram #sewistsofinstagram #youcanhackit #memadeootd #memadestyle #memade #memadewardrobe #sewingismysuperpower #sewhannmade #memadeeveryday #chalkandnotchpatterns #fringetophack

Who else loves seeing people post travel wardrobes? 🙋🏼‍♀️ (it’s ok if you don’t, it’s admittedly a little weird but I love it 😂) I honestly don’t aim for a 100% memade wardrobe but for this trip my only two non memades are a favorite/almost threadbare Madewell button up and a pair of jorts 👖 TBH except for the wedding we’re attending this weekend I’ll just be in a bathing suit or t-shirt and shorts since it’s apparently in the 90s and SUPER HUMID in DC and NY this week 😎😅😰 thank you DC for welcoming me home again with your hot and sweaty arms 🤗 —————— From top to bottom, left to right: #kyototee by @papercutpatterns, a woven and a knit #louboxtop by @sewdiyblog, my brand new #fringedresspattern hack by @chalkandnotch (yes I did manage to finish it AND pack while still going to bed on time 👏🏻), #emersoncroppants by @truebias, #persephonepants by @annaallenclothing, #zadiejumpsuit by @paper_theory (also new from this weekend! I can’t be stopped!), #simplicity8636 by @simplicity_creative_group, #v9253 by @mccallpatterncompany, #idaclutch by @kylieandthemachine and #seabrightswimmer by @fridaypatterncompany —————— #memadestyle #memadewardrobe #travelwardrobe #isew #sewing #ilovesewing #millennialsewing #sewingismysuperpower #youcanhackit #makersgonnamake #indiepatterns #memadeeveryday

My clutch search is over! Well, it was over once @sewnorth reminded me that the (free!) #idaclutch pattern from @kylieandthemachine is simple and customizable, making it perfect for any occasion. I made the project slightly more difficult by choosing vinyl as my outer fabric and using a 9” zipper (instead of the 10” it calls for) but I still managed to cut out the pattern, fabric, and sew it up in under three hours. I also managed to sew my index finger with a leather needle, which I wouldn’t recommend 🙅🏼‍♀️ blush vinyl and notions from @harts_fabric, lining is a blush polyester lining fabric from my stash, and last minute tassel addition came from Michaels 💕 ———————— #sewcialistsofinstagram #sewcialists #isew #ilovesewing #sewing #sewingismysuperpower #kylieandthemachine #ilovetosew #bagsewing #millennialsewing
