May is already gone! How on earth did this happen? It feels like yesterday when I started this challenge and now it's June? God, time really flies! Since Me Made May is over I thought before I showed you my outfits for the last week to do a review and a critique for myself. My pledge was to wear handmade clothes at least 3 times a week because first of all I thought I didn't have that many ... View Post

How I store my sewing patterns (new video)
If you are like me, you probably own a lot of sewing patterns, whether it's PDF or printed ones. Since my collection started growing I figured I had to find a way to organize them for various reasons. First of all, I was forgetting what patterns I owned and so I was making the same things over and over again. Second of all, they were starting to take too much space in our house. You can ...

Anyway, I managed to wear me made outfits for this week as well and I really hope I can keep up with the fourth and last ... View Post
My Clemence skirt by Tilly and the Buttons
The first book I came across when I really got into dressmaking was Tilly's "Love at first stitch". I was literally seeing it everywhere, on blog posts, on Instagram, on everyone's book collection. So I decided I HAD to have it! Here in Greece we have to wait like 15 days to get a book from Amazon, but I'm telling you, this one was so worth the waiting! I call it my sewing bible, because it has ... View Post
My second week of Me Made May 2017
When I decided to join the Me Made May challenge for 2017 I'd never thought I could do two weeks of wearing me made outfits every single day. And not only that, but I managed to wear a different outfit each day so far, no repeats (except for my black Agnes top which I wore twice). How awesome is that? So far I've done much better than my pledge, which was to wear me made at least 3 times a week ... View Post
