Me-Made May Week 3 Round-Up!

Week three already?!?! Holy crap!  This challenge has seriously been so much fun to participate in - and has started to become a little bit challenging.  If you follow me on instagram, you'll have noticed that there have been a number of repeat items showing up week-after week.  It's not that I don't have a bunch of other me-made things I could wear, it's just the temperature has been fluctuating enough that I'm not completely comfortable in my usual summer dresses :)  Also this week - the May-long (aka Victoria Day) weekend was this past weekend (wooo holiday Monday today!) so my husband and I took our now annual canoe camping trip to Charleston Lake Provincial Park.  Even though we were away camping, I was still able to sneak in a few me-mades!

Anyways, enough talk - here are my outfits from last week:



Day 15: Comfy polka-dotted chambray Fen Dress (not yet blogged)
Day 16: Orange Moneta dress!  Again!!
Day 17: Striped Lark Tee
Day 18: Dotted Adelaide Dress
Day 19: Fishy Scout Tee (also again!)
Day 20: Floral Lark Tee (yep - this one is a repeat too!)
Day 21: Camping edition - Constellation PJ's

Adelaide Dress Featured on the Colette Blog!!

Ahhh!  My Adelaide Dress I posted about not too long ago has been featured on the Colette Patterns blog as a part of their "Pattern of the Month" series. I'm just so pleased to be featured in such good company!  There are ladies in that list that I look up to in the sewing blog-o-sphere! 

I am just so gosh-darn excited.  I just wanted to share that with you all!

Dotted Adelaide Dress

You guys you guys you guys!  Spring has finally arrived in Ottawa!  So what does that mean sewing-wise?  Well, I'll probably not going to be spending as much time inside... but it also means fun spring and summer dresses & skirts!

To start off the sunny season, I sewed up a Seamwork Adelaide Dress in a Nani Iro double gauze I've been hoarding since last year.
