#2018MakeNine

I’m taking the plunge and not buying any ready-to-wear clothes in 2018 and making everything myself. I’m also challenging myself to make more stuff with woven and less with knits. With my serger in for a tune up for 2 weeks (yes, I”m pouting ) I decided to get organized for 2018! So here’s my #2018makenine, 9 items that I promise to make. This year I want to learn new techniques, make beautiful things and challenge my skills. Here’s to a self-made year. #2018rtwfast

  1. Greenstyle Creations, Sunday Cardigan
  2. Closet Case Patterns, Carolyn Pajamas
  3. Hey June Handmade, Cheyenne Tunic
  4. Chalk and Notch, Fringe Dress
  5. Alina Design Co., Chi Town Chinos (in the most amazing green twill EVER)
  6. Closet Case Patterns, Kalle Shirt Dress
  7. Noodlehead, Range Back Pack
  8. Hey June Handmade, Trevi Top/Dress
  9. The Tunic Bible, from author of Goodbye Valentino (and host/founder) of the ready-to-wear fast

I know I’m going to make way more than these, but these are items I’m super excited by. I even have fabric picked out for most of them. Oh oh! I also got some white rayon jersey today to make 3-4 different t-shirt patterns to compare. Stay tuned for that.
