I’m making you a coat. It’s a shop project so it has to be done in a couple of weeks. So you should really pop by.

#memademay2019 Day 22 this black linen (from an OOP McCall’s pattern) is one of my favourite sundresses ever. The closely-spaced buttons mean that even though it’s really tight now it doesn’t gape too obviously. There is some room at the front princess seams where I could let it out, which I should probably try, especially if I want to actually wear it more this summer.#memademay2019 Over the weekend my organized cousin came over and we banished large chunks of my wardrobe to cardboard box purgatory, leaving me with a much emptier, but hopefully more maternity-friendly, closet. One piece I kept out was this @fancytigercrafts #sailortop dress (more of a tunic really)... the theory is sound but I think on practice I’d need to make a version at least two sizes bigger, probably with more belly fullness. Not impossible but I’m not sure if I’m that committed to this pattern (though it is pretty adorable). As is, it’s just right enough already that it’s riding up constantly. Also wearing my purple @helens__closet #averyleggings (yet again)#memademay2019 day 19. Finally a picture of this sweater-dress, which gets pretty heavy use on the weekends and evenings when I just want to be comfy. It started life as a Kwik Sew sweater for my husband, had an unfortunate bleaching incident that wrecked the original bands, got hemmed (without band) to an unfortunate length, and finally I took it in, shortened the sleeves, changed the neckline, and added a bottom piece with my remaining scrap of the fabric and some new bands at hem and sleeve to make it a sweater-dress for me. Worn over my fleece leggings. Today is all about the yard work and spring cleaning, so comfy has been good.Does this dress make me look pregnant? 😂 #mccalls6041 #maternitysewing #tanitisisgestatestwins#mccalls6041 sundress progress. My FBA on the bodice was not particularly necessary and I wound up taking it in an inch at each side seam (I won’t blame the pattern entirely as converting the back to shirred and stretchy probably threw everything off.) on the other hand if my boobs ever decide to actually project as they get bigger it might come in handy. And swipe to see my attempt at a clever (though probably unnecessary) nursing access. Now for the skirt. #allthesundresses #saturdaysewing #maternitysewing #tanitisisgestatestwins#memademay2019 day 18 is my weekend uniform again, #burda jeans, @tuesdaystitches #tropocamisole and the @mccallpatterncompany hoodie that I should really be sick of by now. Today’s activities include cleaning, a wee bit of sewing, and dark chocolate that @weird_domini_ gave me for mother’s day, so really life isn’t that bad.Me on Pattern Review:
