Woke up early and managed to do a little bit of sewing this morning. ☀️ So nice to get back on the machine after a few days away. ✂️ . . . . . . . . . #waketomake #wip #sewcialistsaturday #sewersgonnasew #ilovesewing #ilovetosew #diyfashion #imakefashion #makersgonnamake #makeitsewcial #instasew #happysewing
A quick work trip to Texas calls for a small suitcase with two of my favorite me-mades. ✈️For the flight I wore my #arenitepants (which btw I've been wearing a LOT.) And for my meeting I'm wearing one of my first versions of the #louboxdress1. Simple, easy, comfort. ✂️ . . . . . . . . . . . #sewersgonnasew #imakefashion #sewcialists #isew #ilovesewing #ilovetosew #diyfashion #makersgonnamake #makeitsewcial #handmade #sewingproject #instasew #sewistsofinstagram #happysewing
Strutting into Monday. 😎 And counting down the days until vacation. 😂 The next couple of weeks are going to be really busy for me but I'm planning to just take it one step at a time. What are you up to this week? I posted this #charliecaftan pattern by @closetcase.patterns on the blog last week. 🌺 Hit up my profile for the link. Fabric is from @wearethefabricstore I don't think this exact one is still available but they have loads of awesome linens. 👍✂️ . . . . . . . . . . #ontheblog #sewingblogger #imakefashion #sewcialists #sewing #isew #ilovesewing #ilovetosew #sewersgonnasew #diyfashion #makersgonnamake #makeitsewcial #sewistsofinstagram #happysewing #handmadeforever #createmakeshare
It's still too hot in the sewing room so I'm camped out downstairs working on my next pattern and cutting out samples. 😅 Hoping it will cool down enough when the sun sets to make the sewing room tolerable. ✂️✂️✂️ . . . . . . . . . #waketomake #wip #sewcialists #sewing #isew #sewersgonnasew #ilovesewing #ilovetosew #diyfashion #imakefashion #makersgonnamake #makeitsewcial #handmade #sewingproject #instasew

DIY Caftan – Review of the Charlie Caftan by Closet Case Patterns
DIY Caftan – Review of the Charlie Caftan by Closet Case Patterns
about a week ago

This summer is turning out to be the summer of the caftan for me. Last week I shared a caftan hack of Lou Box Dress 1 pattern. And today, I have a fantastic, tropical Charlie Caftan to share. This year I’ve only sewn one garment with a zipper so I’m definitely into a the comfort zone with my me-mades. And, I’ll be spending a week long vacation in Hawaii this month so I’m planning to spend a lot of time in caftans. My skin is super sensitive to the sun so I always cover up as much as possible and this year, the caftan will be my go-to for chic coverage.
