MMM ’14 Outfits Week Two

As I promised in my Me Made May pledge post, I will be sharing my outfits each week. If you want to see week one, you can find it here. So, let’s hop straight into week two…………..

Day 9 – Spotlight & Spreadsheets

Still working through some ASG spreadsheets. But also I have to go to Spotlight. Today’s MMM item is this sparkly, striped grey dress (McCalls 6074). I added black leggings and a black cardi from target plus black & white ballet flats.

I ignored Mr Asks pleas about taking up his pants and stitched up McCalls 6284. Woohoo! That’s one item made this month. I put this pattern off for ages coz it has lots of pieces & I hate tracing! Wasn’t so bad after all…..

Day 10 – Sewing Meeting

You may remember that I coordinate the Marion ASG group (you’re welcome to come and say Hi) and we meet today. Today MMM is the top I made yesterday, my denim bread & butter skirt and my cape – yep, three MMM’s! I added navy tights and my shoefull of sugar shoes from Modcloth.

There was lots of sewing going on today, very inspirational! I finished an embroidery project and was inspired to start a new one. Nothing like a good sewing chat to get excited about stitching up a storm!

Day 11 – Lazy Sunday

Today is Mother’s Day but all the mums in our lives have been visited and gifted, so Mr Ask & I are just hanging out. Today’s MMM is my sweet & sexy nightgown, I wore it all day (love it when I can get away with that)!

We caught up on our tv show and I spent the whole day working on an embroidery project and actually finished it!

No idea on the weather, it didn’t matter today!

Day 12 – Mummy Asks Sewing

Today’s MMM is this refashioned tee, I added the collar and bow. I haven’t blogged it but I’m working on a similar one and I’ll be posting it soon. The tee was worn with my skinny jeans and this cardi.

I’m helping Mummy Ask to sew her dressing gown, it’s her MMM pledge. I might work on my own project too. Since I’m not really going anywhere, I tried this makeup look, inspired by this tutorial from Sharon Farrell. I like it’s almost 60’s vibe, so I poofed up my hair and added the vintage Royal Flying Doctors scarf for flair!

Day 13 – Sick Day

Mummy Ask and both felt like we were getting sick! Even though we were battling a nasty headaches we popped out for groceries. I threw my jeans on with this MMM pink tee (Burda 02/2010 #122 B).

I picked up some pre chopped roast veggies and a little lamb rack to roast in the supermarket. Then it was back to bed for me!

Day 14 – Nailed It!

Both Mummy Ask & I are feeling better but a bit blah & headachy. But my grown out nails need attention. I had the fastest lady, so it’s all good! Plus these cute flamingo shoes made me smile! Mummy Ask tried her hand at knit fabric flat set in sleeves, with great success.

Today’s MMM items are my denim bread & butter skirt and this floral top I made ages ago (McCalls 2254). I was never that happy with the sleeves so I always wear it with a cardi. I was feeling the floral and I just love to put pattern on pattern! Are you for or against pattern clashing?

Day 15 – Tote & Tidy

Today’s MMM is this striped tee, drafted from RTW, worn with my trusty skinny leg jeans and hoodies for feet.

I’m spending the day tidying up the house and organizing a few meals for the week. I hate wasting time tidying when I could be sewing! But I did put together a tote bag, including some embroidery I finished on the weekend. I’ve put a pic below, if you fancy making one, I have a post here.
