Today is the last day of May. Like others perhaps, I began the month with great enthusiasm for this challenge - to wear something I made every day. Early on, I was diligent. Then life intervened and I was a slacker, at least with respect to MMM.
Lessons learned:
- I have lots of clothes, an embarrassment of riches.
- I have many, many tops for summer time.
- Sewing bottom pieces will be my new focus, focused especially on orphan tops.
- I tend to reach for the same pieces each day.
- I should clean out my closet.
Here are my MMM faves:
|

|
Cutting Line Design Pure and Simple Shell in cotton from Mozambique |

great collection. I think we are all the same in that we each have our favourite pieces that we go to all the time - despite making lots of clothes.
