Here is the front view of my newest make... full post coming soon on the #minervamakers blog. This is the #pepperminteverydaydress from @inthefolds in a beautiful linen from @minervacrafts. I think I need a million more of these- that’s why it’s called the everyday dress, right? 💜This fabric was provided to me in exchange for a post on the Minerva Crafts blog but I give it an unbiased 👍👍 #curvysewing #memadewardrobe #handmade #handmadewardrobe ##isew #sew #sewcialists #sewingblogger #sewing #lovetosew #sewinclusive #curvyfashion #sewcialists #handmadefashion #sewistsofinstagram #fatshion #whatfatgirlsactuallywear #plussizesewing #plussizefashion

Sneaky peak of my most recent project... full post coming soon on the #minervamakers blog. This is the #pepperminteverydaydress from @inthefolds in a beautiful linen from @minervacrafts. I think I need a million more of these- that’s why it’s called the everyday dress, right? 💜This fabric was provided to me in exchange for a post on the Minerva Crafts blog but I give it an unbiased 👍👍 #curvysewing #memadewardrobe #handmade #handmadewardrobe ##isew #sew #sewcialists #sewingblogger #sewing #lovetosew #sewinclusive #curvyfashion #sewcialists #handmadefashion #sewistsofinstagram #curvyootd #fatshion #whatfatgirlsactuallywear #plussizesewing #plussizefashion

So excited about how this one turned out... such a quick and satisfying project after my Yanta overall struggle from last weekend. I can’t wait to get this photographed and share it with you! The pattern from @inthefolds was a joy to work with, as always, and this linen is so beautiful. It’s is much less coarse and has a better drape than the Brussels washer linen I normally work with, while still maintaining a beautiful texture. I received this for free from @minervacrafts for my first contribution to the #minervamakers team, and I am not disappointed 💜 #sewing #sewcialists #fabriclove #linen #linenlove #pepperminteverydaydress #peppermintmagazine #inthefolds #inthefoldseverydaydress #minervamakes

Dismayed by some major fit issues with my #yantaoveralls, I am moving on to my next project and letting these percolate in the naughty corner for a while. They seem to have come up a couple of inches to big and are collapsing at the side seam in a most unbecoming way. I basted in the side seams and I think that will ay least rectify them to wearable, but I have to muster the motivation to alter them since I spent quite a bit of time putting in button plackets on the sides instead of the zipper the pattern calls for. Plus, this linen is a nightmare to unpick. A bit disappointed that I don’t have anything to show for my holiday weekend sewing yet, but onwards and upwards. #curvysewing #memadewardrobe #handmade #handmadewardrobe #memadeeveryday #isew #sew #sewcialists #sewing #lovetosew #sewinclusive #curvyfashion #sewcialists #handmadefashion #sewistsofinstagram #linen

Thanks to @heatherandthepugs for hosting the #projectfabricfast. I need to get my stash in order- and that starts by not buying any more fabric! I am also hoping I can get inspired to work on my hinterland dress and yanta overalls (fabric in this pic), but I’m not putting any pressure on myself there as Heather says it’s a gentle challenge. All the details and my fabric bins of shame are in m stories. Anyone else joining in? #fabricstash #sewing #sewcialists #fabricbuyingban #fabriclove #linen #stashbusting #theseasonofthestash #stashbustsummer

Here is one more photo of my @seamworkmag #seamworkgene dress to let you know that my blog post is live! #linkinbio with all the details, but spoiler alert, it’s was a very straightforward project and I give it 👍👍 Also, this is how it looks unbelted!
