Today, I’m very excited to share one of my final makes of 2020. It’s not the last thing I sewed this year but it is one of the last things that I sewed just for myself and just for fun. I started making this jumpsuit back in November as part of my birthday-month celebration. Isn’t sewing for yourself a great way to celebrate? Plus, there’s nothing like a fun and playful jumpsuit to make one get into a celebratory mood.
Today, I'm very excited to share my Meadowood Blouse with you. I made this blouse at the beginning of November, around the time of my birthday. I hadn't been sewing many things just for fun so I made up this blouse and a jumpsuit that I'm planning to share next week. It was really nice to get back to garment sewing and sew something just for me. This blouse has an oversized silhouette, grown-in sleeves, v-neck, front button band and a yoke with gathers. The oversized shape is reminiscent of my Lou Box Top pattern but the details in this blouse make it extra special.
I feel like I haven't done a lot of sewing just for myself this year but I'm that when I go back and look at my list of completed makes, it will be lengthy. I do have 100% certainty, however, that the Seamwork Kaye Top is my most often made pattern. I spend most of my sewing time making things for Sew DIY business – pattern samples, pattern hacks and tutorials. I love making those things but they're not as free and fun as making something just for myself can be.
