Me Made May - Week Five

Week five is also known as "The week I was totally sick of having photos taken each day" - hence the photos are a bit crap! There's nothing much new to see here (well one new thing). I just wanted you guys to know I ALMOST made it to the end of the month wearing something made by me each day.

31 May

So I didn't quite make it to the full 31 days! On Saturday I went to Armageddon and wore my Hell Bunny eyeball dress. However, I did run out to the store in the morning to buy some tights whilst wearing my monthly stitch vintage pattern challenge dress, so that kind of counts right?

FINAL THOUGHTS.....
 
Generally I don't have any problems with having my photo taken, but a whole month taking photos every day is just too exhausting! 
 
When it comes to dress making - I am very much a "dress maker" rather than a top, skirt or anything else maker. I really need to try and make a few more separates.
 
I do really favour making things from cottons and May is pretty much winter in NZ! I spend most of the winter months wearing my beloved vintage polyester dresses because I find them so warm without too much bulk. But I DO have merino waiting to be stitched up for winter. I really must get onto that to keep myself warm.  

Also, I think I will do self stitched September this year - it will mean I can actually take outfit posts in daylight!
