Me Made May: Days 19-24

It's been a week.

Sewing has been keeping my spirits up and I have another creation to share later this week, but there's just still been a lot going on.  It's alright, I'm dealing with it, and just trying to make time to be crafty.

I did have some exciting moments though! I got my new/first serger in the mail!  The picture is from it being literally unpacked from the box, sitting on the floor, while I tried to figure out where I was going to put it.  I was totally intimidated by it, but after watching some YouTube videos, I was not only able to use it with the default threads, but also rethread it with my own.  I'm still so impressed with how fast it is! And efficient! I actually can't wait to make more garments because of it, and to go back and look at some of my other (messier) pieces and see if I can clean them up.


Anyways, here's what I wore this week:


Day 19
What I Wore: My new Ceylon
What I Did: We were godparents to my nephew so we went to the ceremony then to lunch with the family


Day 20
What I Wore: Plaid circle skirt with a store-bought sweater
What I Did: Work! Was in training all day so I just needed to be comfy

Day 21
What I Did: More work


Day 22
What I Wore: My Main Squeezebox Outfit
What I Did: Last day of training. Woohoo!

Day 23
What I Wore: Tree of Life dress
What I Did: Yeah, it was a really stressful day. I literally bolted out the door so took just a second to snap my photo. Was not ready for a smiley-face at the time.

Day 24
What I Wore: My first Rooibos
What I Did: Worked from home.  I think I actually wore sweats during the day then changed into this in the afternoon.

  4. Serger!!! So cool! I want one too, will you let me know if you like it? I have a Brother sewing machine and if I get a serger I will probably get a Brother :)

  5. I am "sew" envious of your serger. I've wanted one for a while but it isn;t in the budget until at least next Christmas. Your outfits look great - especially the plaid skirt, the Ceylon and the Tree of Life dress. Actually, I really like the "main squeeze box" outfit too.

  7. Your outfits are lovely, as always :) That serger is causing some serious envy in my soul - I think I may give in this summer and purchase one myself!
