Yes! It’s that time again….May (and therefore Me-Made-May’18) is coming up fast!Me-Made-May’18 a hugely popular maker challenge (now in its ninth year) created by one of the most loved sewing bloggers, Zoe Edwards. She explains “Me-Made-May’18(#MMMay18 for social media interaction) is a challenge designed to encourage people who sew/knit/crochet/refashion/upcycle garments for themselves to wear and love them more.” I have participated the last few years (see 2013 & 2014 & 2015 & 2016 & 2017 here) and I just get so much out of it! Each year I alter my pledge and this year I’m trying to wear forgotten items and find better matches for what I have, even if they are not Me Made. In my Me Mades, I’m including items I’ve sewn, refashioned or embellished but not just garments, accessories like hair clips, head scarves, brooches, earrings, shoe clips and bags too.
‘I, Sarah of AskSarah.com.au, sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May ’18. I endeavour to find wardrobe gaps & rediscover & wear as many me made or refashioned or embellished items (garments,accessories,totes etc) each day for the duration of May 2018’
I’ve been posting more outfit pics to Instagram & Facebook of late, so that will be pretty much the same. I’ll probably post a weekly wrap up on the blog too. And I LOVE to comb through everyone else’s posts in Instagram! I feel inspired by what other people make and wear. If you knit, sew or craft, there’s still plenty of time to sign up! I’m so looking forward to seeing what others have been making. If you want to know more about Me-Made-May’18, head to Zoe’s blog with all the deets! If you sign up, let me know so I can follow you on Instagram xxxx
