Dear self: get off your arse and take photos of the five things you’ve made this week.

Isolation sewing - a Made by Rae Bianca top. Super-simple to sew and also cute... I’m going to have to make more of these.

Been having a rough couple of weeks so I decided to make myself a rainbow dress.

So I decided to participate in an Instagram-based challenge called Me Made May, meaning I have to wear at least one article of handmade clothing every day this month (and take pics). So far I'm having fun with it, and I'm aiming to see it through to the end. There'll be new makes showing up, as well as old makes that I've dusted off to see if I still like wearing them.

One thing's for sure: outfit planning has made me realise that I really, really need to sew more things for my bottom half. I've made lots of tops and dresses, but only three skirts and zero pants. Pants fitting seems so damned complicated, though - there are so many more ways that things can fit poorly than with skirts or dresses. Bah.

I'm still waffling on whether or not I should post my daily photos here as well as on Instagram.

(If we're mutuals and you also have Instagram and would like us to follow each other, send me a message - I won't post my link publicly but I'm willing to share it in PMs.)

SEAL DRESS. :D I found this jersey while online browsing at L’Oiseau Fabrics and it fell into my cart extremely quickly. It’s super-soft and sturdy and stretchy and the dress is cute as fuck.

It also only took about two hours to make, so, bonus.
