For months I've had several garments already cut out, just waiting to be sewn. My goal for the weekend was to finish these three items to completion. While I didn't finish everything I would've liked to, I did make a lot of progress. I finished a Pretty Blouse, basically completed a Linden, and got a good start on a knit Scout Tee. This was my first attempt at sewing with knit fabric, and I'm surprised it didn't turn out too horribly. I still have the hem and neck binding to complete, and I should also probably redo the sleeve hems. Hopefully I'll have this top done this week so I can wear it soon!
Lauren kicked off the sewing weekend by cutting out fabric. Her plan was to sew up several Tiny Pocket Tees with the intention of raising the neckline. I think she's still working on perfecting all the tiny details, but nonetheless, we both have grand plans to wear as many handmade items as possible throughout this month. Lauren and I even had our first taste of Me Made May on Monday while wearing handmade tops (Lauren also added a handmade cowl and purse) out and about. I'm not sure what's in store for next Friday, but I definitely wouldn't mind having another mini sewing marathon with my best friend!
