Me Made May - Days 1-9

Wow, we're already 9 days into May, how did that happen?! Rather than post a me-made-may update every day, I'm posting pictures on Instagram each day and am planning on 3-4 updates here on the blog throughout the month to let you know how I'm going, and here is the first...

As I predicted, easy going so far with wearing me-made stuff every day.

As I mentioned in my sign-up post, what I want to gain out of this me-made month is more of a picture not of the me-made items that I wear, but the RTW items, to hopefully improve my to-sew list to slowly replace these RTW items rather than buying new ones to replace them as the wear out.

The key RTW items I've been wearing so far are:
- Undies - I've now got two pairs of me-made undies, and want to carry on making some more (blog post soon)
- Tights/Leggings - I'd like to have a go at leggings sometime soon, and also came across this post the other day about making your own tights that I am also tempted to have a go at.
- Bras - I don't intend on having a go at making bras in the near future.
- Jumpers/Cardigans - I am slowly working on this, with my knitting, and also want to try making some cardigans out of jersey (see the black wrap cardi on day 9)
- Singlets - in addition to adding to my t-shirt selection I want to make some singlets/tanks/vests as I wear them a LOT, but I still have some decent RTW ones so this isn't at the top of my list.
- Running/Exercise Gear - I have leggings I wear running that I bought, and I haven't tried making anything like that as I haven't come across the right fabric in stores yet, but will keep my eyes out.

Let's see how the rest of the month pans out, and if any other RTW items pop up.

Are you doing MMMay? How's it going for you?
