The Wilder Gown is on the blog! ✂️ I made the short sleeve & one skirt tier version using denim Tencel fabric left over from a previous project. I barely had enough of it to sew this mini Wilder so I used the selvage for the skirt hem and matched the contrast tie and neckline topstitching. I love how it all came together so quickly and turned out to be a lovely summer maternity dress! @fridaypatterncompany #wildergown #fridaypatterncompany #sewing #maternitysewing #pregnancysewing #indiesewing #indiesewingpatterns #sewingblogger #memadewardrobe #seamstress #diyfashion #diystyle #maternitystyle #summersewing #minidress #sewistofinstagram #sewersofinstagram #imakemyownclothes #sewcialists #makersgonnamake #sewmystash #sewingleftovers

Here’s a sneak peek of my latest make: @byhandlondon Jenna Dress in a gorgeous emerald embroidered voile. All the details will be on @minervacrafts Blog later this summer, but *Spoiler Alert* I love it! 💚😉💚 ............. #bhljenna is my first selfish make in a long time! For the past few months, I’ve been neglecting my handmade wardrobe and focusing on growing a tiny human inside me! But I do miss sewing for myself a lot and I’m starting to think seriously about a few items I wanna make to accommodate my growing belly... 🌈 #rainbowbaby #sewing #byhandlondon #indiesewing #indiesewingpatterns #handmadewardrobe #imakemyownclothes #sewistsofinstagram #diyfashion #slowfashion #selfishsewing #sewinglove #sewingblogger #instasewing #instasew #sewcialist #instacouture #jecoudsdoncjesuis #jeportecequejecouds

My newest make! I used #aksamantha for the lovely wrap bodice and I drafted the midi skirt with side slits. I went with my own skirt instead of the Samantha dress pattern because I really wanted to sew with this beautiful stretch velvet that I had in my stash. The velvet is quite thin and with those gorgeous textured vertical lines, I thought a straight skirt would work better for this particular fabric. I like how it turned out. And aren't those sleeve bow ties super cute?! @akpatterns #sewistsofinstagram #diyfashion #handmadewardrobe #sewcialist #instasew #instasewing #stretchvelvetdress #dressmakersofinstagram #sewing #imakemyownclothes #patternhack #selfishsewing #memadeeveryday #sewinghack #samanthadress #samanthadressmonth

My #ddagave is on the blog! I’m in love with @deer_and_doe_patterns new asymmetrical wrap skirt and the fact that it is reversible (for Version A) - 2 skirts in 1, what’s not to like?! And it’s a perfect pattern to use some smaller pieces of fabric I had in my stash (1/2 yard per side). One one side, I used a geometric piqué (I tried to carefully match the pattern at the asymmetric line). On the other side, I used two shades of faux suede to emphasize the asymmetric panels. **details are on the blog (link in bio)** #agaveskirt #deeranddoepatterns #reversibleskirt #indiesewing #indiesewingpatterns #makemystash #sewcialists #slowfashion #sewingblogger #sewingblog #sewistsofinstagram #handmadewardrobe #cousumain #diyfashion #jeportecequejecouds #instasew #memadewardrobe
