I just finished this raspberry pleated midi skirt for a lovely lady and couldn’t resist taking a quick pic before shipping it! Such a pretty holiday outfit 😍🎄#pleatedskirt #midiskirt #makersmovement #handmade #wisconsinmakers #customskirt #holidaysewing #holidayoutfit

This Evi Dress in denim is my 4th blue make in a row: Am I officially in a blue sewing period?! 😉 The Evi is a semi-fitted button down dress and I love its triangular hemmed finish. I cut a size 4 and removed 1/2" at the neckline. The pattern shows additional buttons and buttonholes on the v-neck which I think is a neat feature. However, I really wanted to use these gorgeous stone buttons found at an estate sale and they looked a bit too big on my neckline. So I decided not to do it but my next Evi will have snaps all the way up into the lovely V-neck. Thanks Joanna @fresh_press_patterns for another beautifully drafted pattern! Will post more details on my blog soon #evidress #freshpresspatterns #sewing #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialists #handmadewardrobe #instasew #slowfashionmovement #makersmovement #jecouds #cousette #instacouture #diyfashion #madisonsews #wisconsinsews #vegandocmartens #bluedresses

I love sewing accessories. Here, I bring out my inner Frenchness 😂 with this handmade scarf & matching beret! I had a lot of fun designing the prints for the scarf and this organic cotton knit from Spoonflower feels super cozy! (And if you’ve watched my story, you might have noticed that I also made a set in gray 😉) #sewing #spoonflower #sewinglove #memade #sewingaddict #diyfashion #sewistsofinstagram #beret #sewist #isewmyownclothes

Have you seen @athinakakou gorgeous new pattern #akkimberly ? It has a beautiful, classic silhouette with a half circle skirt, a soft V-neck and optional long sleeves and pockets. I made mine in a floral lace and I lined it with blue crepe. And I used a navy peachskin for the bottom panel and the matching belt. All details are on my blog! Happy Thanksgiving! #kimberlydress #akpatterns #sewing #holidaysewing #dressmaking #sewistsofinstagram #instasewing #sewinglace #lacedress #destash #ilovetosew #handmadewardrobe #sewcialists #sewist

Day 5 of #bpsewvember is “Warm”: these self-drafted shorts in a 70s vintage polyester are a summer favourite of mine! (Also a fall favourite with some tights) #vintagefabrics #repurposedfabric #repurposed #makersmovement #sewistsofinstagram #diyfashion #handmadeisbetter #handmadewardrobe
