NickeyRobo:
#mmmay15 day 29. This probably my oldest handmade garment that I still wear with any frequency. It was a @threadbangerstudios project wayyyy back in 2008, and I made it out of a vintage sheet.
NickeyRobo:
#mmmay15 day 28. Now that the month is almost over, I wanted to make sure I actually wore everything I've made at least once (as long as it's all work and weather appropriate). So I pulled this absurdity, made of thrift store fabric, out of the closet and
NickeyRobo:
#mmmay15 day 27. I've realized this month that I pretty much have no handmade pants that are acceptable for wearing out of the house. So I made some #hudsonpants out of a rayon silk blend this week and they feel great. The shirt is my self drafted TV test
NickeyRobo:

NickeyRobo:
#mmmay15 Kinda ironic, I stayed up way past my bedtime to finish sewing my @heatherlou Carolyn Pajamas. They are silky and fancy and I lovvvve them.
NickeyRobo:
#mmmay15 day 19. Made this shirt out of a sheet a few years ago. And the skirt might be the first repeat of the month!

NickeyRobo:
#mmmay15 The only dress I ever made from the Built By Wendy book. It's not my best work (at the time I really struggled with the collar because I didn't properly understand grainline) but I love it for the fabulous fabric, which is vintage, picked up at a
