I related to your post also!<br /><br />Funny though, I've actually never noticed your lack of accessories (until you mentioned) but, I would certainly say you're stylish. :-).Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223845206304332317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29461571974467476.post-49269676834192483572012-06-06T19:48:19.297-04:002012-06-06T19:48:19.297-04:00Hey Jen!!!

I think you also commented on my MMM round up and express the same!! <br /><br />-ICING: I have ALL icing and feel that CAKE can be store bought! <br /><br />- SEPARATES: I only have 3 skirts and only 1 I consider wearable.<br /><br />-Accesorize: Haha me too, I apologised in my post for lack of accesories hahah I'm too lazy. And not stylish I guess hahha<br /><br />-Sewing Skills: My garments are so much better now too! They are lined and serged. Unlike the forst me-mades - unlined polyester and zig zagged raw edges :)<br /><br />I really enjoyed reading your post. I think our sewing behaviour is very similar :)<br /><br />xoxoNeenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05805951948694378777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29461571974467476.post-78942244782523766662012-06-04T17:33:23.682-04:002012-06-04T17:33:23.682-04:00I'm glad I'm not the only girl who's l...I'm glad I'm not the only girl who's low on accessories. Most of what I do have, I've accumulated this year so that my Sew Weekly pictures don't look quite so plain (some of those girls are great at it!). Ebay has been a great friend ;-)<br /><br />I had to laugh-out-loud at the thought of scrubbing toilets in a pencil skirt! You're right, I should make more aprons. I've made one and love the pattern - I just don't find myself drawn to making more when there are so many pretty dresses to sew! (And, there's my problem - heehee) Indeed, I've thought and thought about the Renfrew. I'd love to have it but, I must admit to always choosing to spend the $20 on fabric rather than a pattern. I do have a t-shirt pattern that I'm determined to try this summer. Maybe if that goes relatively well, it will give me the push to order Tasia's. As for shorts, they are definitely on my list!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223845206304332317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29461571974467476.post-20493253328863342692012-06-04T17:27:09.409-04:002012-06-04T17:27:09.409-04:00Thanks!

I own maybe 6 accessories (3 belts, 2 necklaces and 1 scarf) - not a lot to play with when trying to be creative with one's wardrobe.<br /><br />I can see the troubles with trying to make hand-made items that fit into a work at home lifestyle. It would be strange if you started wearing pencil skirts and heels to scrub toilets and peel potatos. Maybe should make a few aprons ;) (I love aprons and have a few vintage patterns that I am hoping tosew up). Have you thought about Sewaholic's Renfrew pattern? A staple t-shirt would make a great wardrobe addition. How about sewing a pair of jeans or shorts?Annabellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11544332573834094941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29461571974467476.post-48761319485460943882012-06-04T15:54:39.097-04:002012-06-04T15:54:39.097-04:00Congratulations on fulfilling your MMM pledge!

It was so nice to be by the water again, even if it was completely different from the beach we grew up near. Thanks! I'm quite looking forward to more summer sewing.
