Hey Loves! Me Made May is here. Though I haven't done much sewing over the past year and my social media presence was almost nonexistent, I decided this would be a great way to jump back in. Here's how the first 9 days went: Day 1 We celebrated one of my guys' birthday. I customized this shirt for him. I used Thermoflex HTV. I tried the new puff vinyl as well. Check out Bama Sign Supply for affordable vinyl and great customer service. Day 2  Rocking the 2020 accessory of the year...the face mask!  This is one of the prints I liked the most out of all the make it made in 2020!  Who remembers the elastic shortage?! Geez! 2020 was a trip! Day 3 Sometimes, I just need something quick and simple...mainly because I waited until the last minute to make it. Some of my favorite pieces are just like this one...simple design in a super cute print.  Click here for a guide to creating an elastic waist skirt. Day 4 This was actuall...

Hey Loves! I'm back this week with my first make of 2019. In the midst of making sewing plans for 2019, I had to make something purple to wear to a church event. FabricMart had the perfect purple scuba knit on sale in December. I bought it in anticipation for this event.  It did not disappoint. I saw this really cute outfit on IG fashion influencer @slipintostyle. I love the style.  The top was a bit bulky for my already curvy frame but the style looked relaxed and fun.  I remembered I have Burda Style 6846.  It's just been sitting in my pattern stash chilling, waiting for it's chance to shine.  Well, the time came.   This was my first time making a Burda Style pattern.  Here are my thoughts: Pattern is easy to follow. Great directions. Only a few pattern pieces. Finished garment measurements are on the pattern paper. I actually like them on the outside of the pattern to determine size and amount of fabric.   Becaus...
