Summer is not on its way this side of the equator, but I reckon that seeing as this years #sewtogetherforsummer is all about the jumpsuit, even sewists in the Southern Hemisphere will be able to comfortably partake. My #robertscollectiondungarees are one of the most beloved garments in my #handmadewardrobe and I don’t think I’ve ever worn these and have not been queried as to “where did you get those dungarees?” Worn here with a #thestellantee as it’s still quite warm in Cape Town until May but I will definitely be layering these over some turtlenecks and warmer tees as winter approaches. I’m always looking for jumpsuit inspiration so I can’t wait to see sewing community makes!@rocco.sienna @sewing_in_spain @sewsarahsmith #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialists #memadeeveryday #memadewardrobe #makeitsewcial #sewcialistsofinstagram #imakemyownclothes #robertscollection #capetownsews

☀️ A new Dawn, a new day ☀️ Without boring you all with the details and perceived hardships of my, essentially privileged, life, i am happy to report that what has been an incredibly challenging season has (hopefully) come to an end and I should be more active around these parts from now on. These are my first #mndawn jeans by @megannielsenpatterns and I’m totally smitten with this pattern. I’m not entirely certain about the composition of this non stretch denim as it’s from my stash, but Its would estimate it at about 9oz. This is the tapered, full length jean. I cut a straight size 4 but graded up just at the waist to a size 6 waistband. I also added 1cm to the crotch length (I’ve realized this is a normal pants mod for me). I ended up taking them in along the inner thigh and side seams quite a bit too. I absolutely love this pattern and there will be many more of these in my future. Worn here with a recently completed #morningsideshirt #sewcialists #handmadewardrobe #imakemyownclothes #sewistsofinstagram #handmadejeans #mndawn #sewyourstash #makeyourstash #memadeeveryday
How is March almost over already?! I’ve been doing a lot of sewing this year, but only for pattern development and I am I SO missing doing recreational sewing right now as the seasons are changing and I’m battling to get dressed in the morning. I dropped my patterns off at the grader this week and, because I SO needed a palate cleaner before embarking upon digitizing it and compiling the instructions, I finally sewed up the #petiteschosespattern by @atelierscammit and @petites_choses__ which I’ve been dreaming about for months. I didn’t have chance / inclination to get fabric for this project so I just improvised with what I had in my stash. The fabric does not do the details of this pattern justice. It is so beautifully drafted (and finished), and I can’t wait to find some time to make more of these! #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialists #handmadewardrobe #memadeeveryday #sewists #makeitsewcial #imakemyownclothes #capetownsews #makeyourstash
I always so enjoy Tori of @thedoingthingsblog and her recreations of Pinterest inspiration photos, so I was so excited when she did one using #thestellantee !! I love her look even more than her inspiration ❤️ . . . #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialists #freesewingpattern #indiepatterns #handmadewardrobe #sewingwithknits #makeitsewcial #sewinginspiration
I’ve been feeling overwhelmed the past few weeks, finding it really difficult to get back into juggling work, parenting and side hustling. I kind of avoid my phone when I feel this way in an attempt to avert anxiety. But, when Beth of @sewdiyblog made (and wrote such a sweet review about) a pair of #thecalyerpants , I couldn’t let it go undocumented in my feed! . . . #sewcialists #sewistsofinstagram #handmadewardrobe #sewists #handmadefashion #indiepatterns #handmadeclothing #makeitsewcial
Depressed to be back at work and not sewing / working on patterns / engaging on IG. At least I have these beautiful #thestellantee versions popping up in my feed to brighten up my day! Thank you @twodogs_and_a_sewingmachine @havinsewmuchfun @s.is.for.sew @okpatterns @kirrily_b for sharing your beautiful makes 😍 . . . . #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialists #handmadewardrobe #memadeeveryday #sewingbasics #indiepatterns #sewists #sewcialistsofinstagram #freesewingpattern
