#MeMadeMay2023 day 10, this dress is a textured cotton from I believe Joann Fabrics, which was purchased and iced dyed by Jenny Hassler, and made into a Caramiyaâs Dragonfruit dress, which I bought and reassembled into a dress for myself. I adored the original dyeing but it languished unworn in my closet. Just too much bright white for me to be comfortable in. In an attempt to make me reach for it, I attempted an over dye, but was too heavy handed and obscured the beauty of the original ice dye. That said, I still love it, the color is wonderful and in the sunlight the highlights dance, and now I wear it. Nothing ventured nothing gained. #johassler #punkfrockers #pfsewingadjacent

#MeMadeMay2023 9 days in and honestly I was not feeling it today. Cooler than expected, so my original planned outfit was nixed. Tried on a dozen other things. Pulled this hacked slight sleeve tunic from Indygo Junction made from two scraps of fabric. I added embroidery but in the end it lingers in the closet. This one is on its way out, making room. In Lane Bryant joggers which I want to replace as they are a horrible fit, but still comfortable enough to lounge in.

#MeMadeMay2023 Today I am stepping out. Vivian Shao Chenâs Nepheline blouse(max chest 48, hip 50), but design can work for larger waist and hips. Pants are Closet Coreâs Mitchell pants, which I have made 3 pairs. They are comfortable and have optional adjustable waist. Both in linen which is my favorite fabric to sew and wear. #closetcoremitchell #nephelineblouse

#MeMadeMay2023 and I am wearing another hacked Indygo Junction Slight Sleeve top(older printed pattern with limited sizing, up to 3x). I added front pockets, made it tunic length, and color blocked. First top that I really hacked significantly. It is an old favorite just perfect for a lazy Saturday morning.

#MeMadeMay2023 day 5, pulled out one of my oldest remaining makes (Indygo Junctionâs Slight Sleeve Top and Tunic) up 3x, one of only a few paper patterns that I held on to. The shorts are Closet Core Pietra shorts in cotton twill, which I discovered last summer. These shorts are another super comfortable staple in my wardrobe. The top was also an early attempt at dyeing fabric. It was solid colored linen dipped in a blue dye. I absolutely love it, but perhaps it can only truly be appreciated by its maker.

#MeMadeMay2023 day 4, these overalls were made and purchased from #johassler. Check out her #withlovejennyshop business serving Perfect blast of color after days of gray skies and rain. The tee shirt is self drafted. I learned an amazing v neckline technique for knits from #debcanham.

#memademay2023 This is a well worn make. The printed linen is fading faster than the solid linen, but I still adore it. It is a mash up of Itch to Stitchâs Celeste dress with sleeves from Anthea Top. Worn with Lane Bryant leggings, a wardrobe staple of mine. So comfortable.
