The Me Made Could recap this yr is fairly quick and candy. It was what I anticipated. I’m too fats to suit into quite a lot of “My Dresses” comfortably.

That is why they’ve fallen out of my wardrobe rotation. I can get them zipped advantageous. They’re simply too cosy within the bodice. It rubs at my armpits and/or constricts on the throat in a means I merely will not tolerate from my apparel.

It’s a two-fold downside. I used to be about 10-15lbs lighter once I made most of them. Plus, I did not study pre-shrinking cloth earlier than stitching clothes with it for a very long time. D’oh!! Sooooooo, I can solely put on a couple of of them with consolation and pleasure. Possibly I will have to show them into skirts (with deep pockets) in spite of everything. That was the idea/solution that struck me during MMM23. I by no means adopted up on it although.

The standout or MVP from this month was the GD Roses Costume. I wore it 3 times in Could. I had discovered to pre-shrink my cloth by the point I made that gown. (Higher late than by no means.) Thus, it is a bit more forgiving in regards to the 15lbs. Ha! The rose print makes for a stupendous, luxurious gown. It feels a bit royal. The pink is vibrant and daring.

I would like to the touch up the satin stitching across the lightning bolt appliques. It was just like the second time I might ever tried to do that–and there have been so many proper angles! It might use just a little consideration.
