The hoodie I just finished, outside on my lawn. It has many details and a colourful lining inside the hood.

The hoodie on the lawn to show all of it.

Detail of the hood lining and the open zipper. The labels I put in are also visible here. It says «Fragaria Bergin. Made in Haugesund. L»

Detail from when I hand stitched in the lining in the hood.

#memademay2025 I spent the last days of May finishing the wool hoodie with some hand stitching. All done and given away today, just in time before boyfriend goes to the arctic again ♥️

I’ve been wearing #memademay clothes all month, not so good at documenting them. Here’s #lovenotionssabrinaslims with #jalieelle for the final day of the month.

A white female-presenting person stands in a bathroom mirror dressed in a dark brown shirt dress with a very full skirt, with a blue scarf tied at the collar. They are also wearing sandals and a wrist brace.

Yesterday i wore my @charmpatterns.bsky.social Scout dress. It's made of dark brown cotton sateen and the colour delights me as it reminds me of my old Brownies uniform. That's a wrap on #memademay2025

#MeMadeMay2025 day 31: repeat make. #DemeterTop by @annaallenclothing.bsky.social in a vintage yellow cotton + thrifted linen pants + Birks. #MeMadeMay was fun, even though I did not meet my goals (more creative time, finishing WIPs/mends). I loved seeing everyone's makes!

My last #MeMadeMay2025 post is the Sew Over It Lottie dress in Liberty cotton - that’s me done! Have enjoyed #MeMadeMay, mainly seeing the lovely things that other people have made #sewing

A knee length dress with short puff sleeves, a sweetheart neckline, and princess seams made from a red rose floral print on black background.

Closeup of the sweetheart neckline and gathered puff sleeves on a 1940s style dress.

My final #memademay2025 post is this 1940s style dress with a sweetheart neckline and princess seams. I used a vintage cotton knit and one of my mom's McCall patterns from the 1970s! The retro look was really big then as it is now.

#MeMadeMay2025 day 30: #SaguaroSet top from @fridaypatternco.bsky.social in an upcycled and dyed cotton duvet I thrifted. I sometimes forget that I really like this top.

A narrow band of yellow jersey fabric and an old ball of yarn. I am putting the yarn inside the folded band and making piping ribbon.

I have sandwiched the piping in between the green wool main fabric and the printed fabric, which is from an old t-shirt. In the process of making a hoodie.

#memademay2025 Day 28: making piping ribbon by folding this old acrylic yarn in a band of jersey I cut from one of the t-shirts. I got all these pieces topstitched on the main fabric tonight. Now to figure out where the applique goes.

#memademay2025 day 28 and it's finally nice outside! Shirt dress weather at last!

#memademay2025 Day 27: getting som ironing and pinning done this evening. The 2 t-shirt prints in the photo have gotten #vlisofix on, so they will be appliquees. One step closer on my project.

#MeMadeMay day 27 and it’s a miserable day here so am wearing a Liberty print Sew Over It Ava skirt in cotton needlecord (not a great photo, admittedly!) #sewing #MeMadeMay2025

New hair, old sweater. Which I washed and blocked -- and had help drying via Sofia's body heat.

#memademay2025 Day 25:
All the fabrics prewashed, so tonight I got started on cutting out all the pieces for the hoodie. I love having a bit of time for each step. I layed it out how it will go, and took photos, so now I can have a look at those until I have time for the next step.

Had to pause #MeMadeMay posts for a few days but for day 24 here’s the Sew Over It Lilian blouse #sewing #memademay2025

#memademay2025 Day 23: sorting my overlock thread. I used to hold serger classes so I have… too much. But I do love finding the perfect combo to add an extra detail right in the seam. #sergersewing #memademay

It’s a #loiseaufabrics day as I hope to visit the store for the first time today. Been online shopping from them for about 8 years.

#MeMadeMay2025 day 21: Surprisingly chilly and rainy these past few days, so I've pulled out these corduroy #pomonapants from @annaallenclothing.bsky.social, which are so comfortable! Adding a linen pair to my queue for summer.

a dearest ME MADE shirt done out of hand printed woodblock indian fabric that was a courtain before 😇. It has upcycled buttons. I used Vernon shirt of cshmerette and just draw a line in the sleeve part to make "short sleeves" 😇 #memademay #memademay2025

#memademay2025 Day 20:
Planning another gift! I wanted to use the polar bears and the seals, but they felt too cutesy for a grown man (boyfriend ♥️). Luckily his collection of outgrown @wfmu.bsky.social shirts is still here! I am meant to be making a quilt with them. But first, one more hoodie ♥️

#memademay2025 Day 19: always ready to start something new! My ravelry queue has never been empty since I joined in 2007. I always want to make so many more things. This will be a #heartisaspadeshawl for my mothers birthday, in the leftover pink #raumatumi plus #perminkamma

#memademay2025 Day 18: I finished my latest project, a #haustcardigan in #raumatumi. Pattern by @skeindeer.bsky.social . A gift for my friend Miranda 💖 I love knitting gifts, but I would not like to knit for sale/commision or anything similar. It has to be something I do because I want to.

#memademay2025 Day 17: wearing my 45 year old #rogalandbunad. Shirt embroidered by my grandmother and wool embroideries done by my mother. I changed out all the silver ribbons this year and had all the silver pieces cleaned. Lots of work but it turned out so nice!

#MeMadeMay2025 day 19. Can't go wrong with a #patinablouse from @fridaypatternco.bsky.social. Paired with thrifted RTW linen trousers. My kitten climbed me during these photos, so I guess he was ready for his close-up.
