So this morning I woke up very early with the Sun and since the milkman delivers early I actually got up and decided that I should put myself to use and reflect on the Plastic-free(ish) journey that I’ve been on this month. This turned into quite a long mind ramble and at the end I thought. This is pretty much… Read more »
So since may has actually started and me-made-may is underway I thought I should probably drag myself out of my writing rut and get my pledge written up and on to the blog! So here it is… For those of you that haven’t heard of me-made-may it’s a monthly challenge that started with sozo on her blog. The idea of… Read more »
So it’s been a very long time since I’ve actually written a blog post on here. I have a few drafts that got half finished but I never actually got around to posting them because I didn’t get the time or life just got in the way. Probably mainly that I didn’t get round to sorting out decent photos and… Read more »
So it’s somehow got to 6 months through the year… quite how I’m really not sure. It’s has just whizzed by. But I thought it would be a good idea to do an update on my Make Nine challenge that I posted about at the beginning of the year. In Progress Blanket – my red lounge blanket – this is… Read more »
Here is this weeks “Sunday” Sevens post, linking up to Natalie to give a snap shot view of how the last week has gone. Well this time it is actually only a weeks worth of update! Although we’ve still managed to pack a reasonable amount in. I started off the week with a few meetings at the university. I managed… Read more »
So this year I’ve decided to try and join in with the #summerofbasics organised by Fringe Association after Pippa told me about it last month. This post is a little bit delayed as I have been super busy finishing off all my PhD stuff, but late is better than never! The idea of summer of basics is to plan, make and… Read more »
So as I mentioned in the last two installments of Monday Sevens (here and here) I have recently been attempting to make some Ginger Jeans from Closet Case patterns. This is one of the patterns on my 2018 make-nine so hopefully something else that can get ticked off. This will probably have two installments as the jeans are only partially… Read more »
Here is this weeks “Sunday” Sevens post, linking up to Natalie to give a snap shot view of how the last week has gone. Well it’s been a very busy couple of weeks since we last managed a Monday sevens post and lots has been going on with some pretty major milestones passed! So this might be a bit of… Read more »
So here we have my second instalment of me-made-mayness! Well the beginning half of this week was pretty productive, but the second half of the week hasn’t really allowed me to do much sewing. Unfortunately it was quite busy with lots of funeral preparation, and the rest of the month might not give me much sewing time as I might… Read more »
Well it is that time of year again where some sewists give themselves a bit of a challenge and pledge to wear me-made clothes in the month of may. The pledges vary significantly but you can follow a lot of the outifts through #mmmay and #mmmay18 on instagram. Now I didn’t actually make a pledge, this was for a few reasons. Firstly I was… Read more »
