Tomorrow starts So Zo's Self Stitched September and I'm hardly prepared. My pledge is to wear something self-made every day. Since moving to Colombia and being sewing machinless for two years I don't have 30 days of complete outfits, but I'm hoping that this motivates me to get back to daily sewing, even if it's only 3 seams.
Last night, while watching the Emmys, I cut out the fabric for a fullskirted dress with a shirred scoop neck and raglan sleeves.
I'm making it from this pink and white striped seersucker I bought from the amazingly cool Crissy when she had the major task of unloading a stuffed house.
We'll see how this works out. It's been ages since I've tried to sew up something full-skirted. It's not particularly flattering on me, but I just can't resist.
