 This Summer one of my sons broke his arm and needed it cast almost to his shoulder, this made getting tees on and off very tricky. Inspired by the port access placket of the Pickle Toes Pattern Hope, I added a snap up placket to the shoulders of some of his tees. I hope you never need it but I've put together a little tutorial for you just in case! A snap placket can either be done on ready made tees or as you are making a new one, this tutorial covers adding one to a new tee and I used the Pickle Toes Patterns Fried Pickles which is FREE with the code from their Facebook Group

It's exactly a year since I started this blog ready for Me-Made-May'15! Now it's that time again!! my pledge this year is
'I, Sarah of MeMade ( memade.weebly.com) , sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May '16. I endeavour to wear at least 1 item of clothing made by me each day and I also aim to make at least 2 new sewn items for myself per week for the duration of Me-Made-May 2016' 
I plan to wear a completely MeMade outfit on as many days as possible and definitely on the 31st May to mark the end of this years challenge! I'll blog about what I have been wearing every few days so you aren't inundated with posts!
1st MayDo you remember the Fried Pickle tees I made for my boys in a test last month? As soon as that test was over, the designer put out a tester call for this colour blocked tee. I have developed a real love for colour blocking as it means you can easily use up scraps from other projects or use your gorgeous {but expensive} designer and custom printed fabrics sparingly so you can make more things from them! It was my youngest cutie pie who got to try this one, and as you can see he thinks it's great! Keep watching my blog for a 'matching but different' tee for my eldest!  It was the boys turn again for something sewn this week, with the testing of this tee from Pickle Toes Patterns. A quick, easy sew which anyone confident in knit/stretch fabrics would be able to make and best of all it is FREE!! They were both feeling particularly cheeky for these photos!  |
