Me Made May Day 6. Today’s song is B.S. by Jhené Aiko and H.E.R. I don’t have a super deep caption for this. I listened to this song and was feeling myself so I put on an outfit to fit the mood. This is the @cashmerette Alcott dress in a floral ITY from @fabricmart. I need to make this again. It’s comfy & dramatic - the perfect combo. Go be cute today. #MMMayFat #MMMayFat2021 #MMMay #MMMay2021 #MeMadeMayFat #GaSews #FatSewing #MMMayPlus #CashmerettePatterns #AlcottDress #FatSewingClub #Cashmerette #MeMade #SewMySize #CurvySewing #CSCMakes #MillennialSewing #BlackSewist #BlackMaker #SewVisiblyFat #CurvySewingCollective #SeamsLikeSierra

Me Made May Day 5. Today’s song is Everyday by the Dave Matthews Band. My dad loves Dave and we try to make concerts an entire event for the family. I made this dress for my family Christmas card photoshoot back in 2019. I didn’t realize how much I’d reach for it. It’s really great for almost every situation and it’s super comfy. It’s another lengthened @cashmerette #CedarDolmanTop but this time in a viscose linen noil. #MMMayFat #MMMayFat2021 #MMMay2021 #MeMadeMayFat #GaSews #FatSewing #MMMayPlus #CashmerettePatterns #MMMay #CedarDolmanTop #YouCanHackIt #FatSewingClub #SewMySize #BlackbirdFabrics #SewVisiblyFat #BFViscoseLinenNoil #CurvySewing #CurvySewingCollective #MeMade #MillennialSewing #BlackSewist #BlackMaker #SeamsLikeSierra

Me Made May Day 4! Today’s song is Adore You by Harry Styles. Can you see me singing at the top of my lungs —I’d walk through fire for you, just let me adore you. Even if you can’t picture that, know that I would absolutely scream sing this with @jusre. She’s an amazing sister and truly my best friend. We are both wearing me mades. She made a @seamwork Tacara in a blue and red jersey that she lengthened and cocooned in. I made a dress using the @cashmerette Springfield top and a gathered skirt in Brussels washer linen. I don’t remember where I bought this fabric but @pdxsewingstudio has it in several colors. I I’mm also wearing a @munaandbroad Banksia bralette & Waratah undies. Swipe for an outtake.

Me Made May Day 3. I’ve had intense rain and thunderstorms pretty much all day. Ironically today’s song is Everybody Loves the Sunshine by Ron Ayers Ubiquity. I could listen to this song everyday. It just puts a smile on my face. It makes me want to host a backyard bbq or block party. I usually wear bright colors on rainy days because it injects some joy in whatever I do. I put on my @criswoodsews envelope dress in this bright yellow print from @blackbirdfabrics. It’s wrinkled from lots of wear and me refusing to iron it. I’m resting most of the day and listening to the storms outside. #MMMayFat #MMMay #BFPrints #MMMay2021 #MeMadeMayFat #GaSews #FatSewing #MMMayPlus #CrisWoodSewsEnvelope #CSCMakes #BlackbirdFabrics #FatSewingClub #CurvySewing #CurvySewingCollective #SeamsLikeSierra

Me Made May Day 2 - today’s song was Distance by Emily King (@emilykingmusic). There’s a part in the song that says “maybe get dressed up, wear something real pretty that you ain’t never seen.” That’s what led me to this outfit. Haven’t shared these newer @munaandbroad #BirchgrovePants yet. Paired it with another M&B pattern, the #TorrensBoxTop. I like that I can tuck this shirt in or leave it out. It’s easy and the whole outfit makes me feel good.

I wrote a blog post about my plans for Me Made May 2021. I made a playlist that I’ll use to pick an outfit each day. I’m excited to try this method because it injects some fun into this challenge. I’m not sure how I’ll share my outfits but it’s more about the feeling I get when I get dressed anyway. There’s a link in the blog post to the playlist. It’s in Apple Music but there’s also screenshots of it if you use a different platform. Also - this playlist was created for the shuffle. So playing it straight through is your decision lol. I included a little collage of some of my Me Made May looks from 2020 as well.

I may have teared up a bit listening to our podcast episode. Okay so I definitely did. My sister @jusre, my mom and I were interviewed for #SeamworkRadio. We had a blast chatting with @taylorpru. Im so thankful to have a creative practice that all three of us share. It brings me so much joy. Also we are all wearing me made garments! Sone-Seeré is wearing a @helens__closet #BlackwoodCardigan. Mom has on a @cashmerette #PembrokeTunic. I made a @munaandbroad #WaikerieShirt. I hope you get a chance to listen to our episode. #CurvySewing #FatSewing #FatSewingClub #PlusSizeSewing #SewMySize #SewVisiblyFat #GaSews #GeorgiaSews #MeMade #BlackSewist #SewingPodcast #SeamsLikeSierra

It’s Saturday! And it’s my day for the @stylemakerfabrics Spring Style Tour! If you can’t tell from the smile on my face, I am loving this entire outfit. There’s a link in my bio for the full blog post. Details about the fabric, patterns, and my general views on spring are there. I hope you enjoy it ☺️. #SMFStyleTour #FatSewing #MeMade #StylemakerFabrics #SpringStyleTour21 #CurvySewing #PlusSizeSewing #FullerCardigan #CashmerettePatterns #UptonSkirt #SewingBlogger #GeorgiaSews #GaSews #SeamsLikeSierra

I’m back with another project from the #TMCollaBRAtory! This is the @munaandbroad #BanksiaBralette. It came together pretty quickly. Quick enough that I was confused about why I’d waited so long to make it. This is the most comfortable bra I’ve ever worn. I always go for underwire because I hadn’t found any other options that provided support, but this is magical. I made the size H with no adjustments and opted for the most supportive version. I’ve included the standard front back and side pictures so you can see how it fits. For my next version I will size up to the I for the front - thank you @munaandbroad for fitting advice. I might shorten the band elastic. I’ll make it in several colors. I used and organic cotton spandex blend, power net, fold over elastic, and waistband elastic all from @tailormadeshop. They worked well for the project and I’d absolutely use them again. #MunaAndBroad #FatSewing #FatSewingClub #GaSews #CurvySewing #GeorgiaSews #PlusSizeSewing #SewMySize #TailorMadeShop #MillennialSewing #SeamsLikeSierra

Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day and I’ve seen a bunch of cute date night outfits popping up. Well I’m single so this is what I would’ve worn to my virtual date if I had one 😂😂 I made both of these back during pattern testing. The top is a #PSByrdieButtonUp by @patternscout and the dress is a #HinterlandDress by @sewliberated. #FatSewing #PlusSizeSewing #CSC #CurvySewing #MillennialSewing #GASews #GeorgiaSews #AtlSews #AtlantaSewing #FatSewingClub #CurvySewingCollective #MeMade #SewMySize #CSCMakes #MMOOTD #PlusSizeSewingBlogger #SewingBlogger #SeamsLikeSierra

I wanted to share my very own #TarleeTshirt from @munaandbroad. I was given an advanced copy to sew. This is a size G graded to H at the bust with the turtleneck option. I made it in a yummy scarlet merino jersey gifted by @aandrfabrics. Why didn’t y’all tell me that merino was this amazing? Or maybe y’all told me and I wasn’t listening lol. But I really enjoyed making this t-shirt. The directions are clear and I greatly appreciate the notches at the neckline. I have some more pictures up on the blog!

I decided to dust off my blog and start posting about things I’ve made but not fully shared. I started with this cute @seamwork Rhett jacket I made in April. As you can see it pairs well several items in my closet. You can read more about my process over on the blog. I put a link in my bio. #SeamworkMag #SeamworkRhett #FatSewing #CurvySewing #SeamworkPatterns #FatSewingClub #PlusSizeSewing #CashmerettePatterns #GlebePants #SculthorpePants #SeamworkLyle #MontroseTop #ConcordTshirt #WebsterDress #MunaAndBroad #MeMade #GaSews #GeorgiaSews #HartsFabric #MillennialSewing #MeMadeEveryday #SeamworkAmbassador #WhatFatGirlsActuallyWear #CurvySewingCollective #AtlSews #SeamsLikeSierra
