Quick version of the Chloe blouse from Silversaga patterns in a rayon that has been in my stash for an eternity. Next step is cutting into precious fabric that I got in France last year! #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

My favourite sundress ever is complete! This is the #WaverleyDress made using some embroidered cotton voile that I bought in Paris last year. The ruffle is a serious fabric hog, but it’s super twirly and I love it! #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

I have possibly my most ridiculous sewing project to date in progress. For reference, that’s 3m of fabric, and the long pattern piece is half of a skirt ruffle, and it will be the floofiest sundress ever! #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

I finished my Rosewyn blouse! It’s such a great summer top, especially in a light viscose, and it’s a perfect balance of easy to make, and enough fun details to keep it interesting #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

I took a bit of a break from taking photos for #MeMadeMay, but I managed to get one of my Kinfolk dress by Jennifer Lauren Handmade, which is one of my warm weather favourites #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

We’re halfway through #MeMadeMay! It’s raining so I took my pictures inside today, and tried to get my unwilling cat to play along. This is the Smooth Sailing blouse from Wearing History, jeans are RTW #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

#MeMadeMay day 13. Yesterday was a repeat so I didn’t bother with a picture. Today was another Sewaholic Nicola. This one is also several years old and mostly a house dress at this point, but perfect for WFH! #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

Missed a few days of #MeMadeMay because I’ve been sick, but I felt good enough to get a picture today! This Nicks dress from Closet Core patterns is comfy, and definitely a wardrobe staple for me #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

It’s #MeMadeMay day 3! This is the oldest me made garment still in active rotation in my wardrobe, I believe I made this Sewaholic Nicola in 2016 and it’s still going strong #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

I’m outside on the patio wearing a black t-shirt that says Lindy Bout and has a graphic of cats dancing and playing musical instruments, and an orange knee length linen skirt. There is also a black cat in the background exploring the patio

#MeMadeMay day 2! This one is comfy after work clothes…the shirt is unsurprisingly not me-made, but the skirt is the Tara skirt from Scroop patterns. As a bonus, Baerd photobombed this one #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

Day one of #MeMadeMay and I made my whole outfit today! I can’t promise this level of enthusiasm all month, but I’ll do my best! #GarmentSewing #VancouverSews

Some progress on my #swgperennialblouse for #sewskychallenge2025 after spending most of last weekend working on other projects! Just need to finish the waistband and do buttons, and she’ll be done #vancouversews #garmentsewing

This is my most recent make, the Summit Dress from Scroop made out of an embroidered linen blend I picked up in Paris in November, thought I’d post it here too. I thought it was pure linen but a burn test says otherwise, and the lack of wrinkles after washing! #garmentsewing #vancouversews
