I missed this week's #wearitonwednesday challenge which was to wear a monochrome outfit. So instead I chose a "Wear it Like Wednesday" outfit 😜 Skirt is a self-drafted circle skirt made in pleather from @club_tissus Tops are from Simons Shoes are @fluevog #WearItLikeWednesday #wednesdayaddams #selfdrafted #sewist #outfitoftheday #handmadeskirt #ottawasews #handmade #circleskirt #clubtissus #Imakemyclothes #monochrome https://www.instagram.com/p/CpDwYcDvC-W/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

May 22 - Hidden shorts!

Let’s be real, us curvy ladies need something to wear under our dresses in the summer. I’ve made a couple of chub rub proof/bike shorts but these are by far my favorite 🤫🍩🚴‍♀️😃

Last year, my husband challenged me to "create something without a pattern". And my first gathered skirt was born! With in-seam pockets of course, and a very thick waistband.

Sweater weather! For Day 2 of Me Made May, I present the Paxson Sweater from @seamwork made for my husband's birthday. Had to shorten the sleeves and tighten the neckline, but I love this sweater. Bamboo/Cotton fleece and matching Bamboo/Cotton Ribbing from @fabricationsott #memade #memademay #mmm2021 #handmade #seamworkpaxson https://www.instagram.com/p/COYZtHaFJff/?igshid=19ntu9sgktx7h
