From fabric to finished dress.
Progress, not perfection.
I made this—you can too.
Still figuring it out, one stitch at a time.

POV: you take a flowy kaftan and give it a little shape ✨
I hacked the Breathe Kaftan by @armena_sews by adding a split and a belt to cinch the waist and I’m obsessed with how elevated it made the final look 🤎
Sometimes the best sewing projects are just small tweaks that make a pattern feel completely your own. #sewingreels #blacksewingnetwork #memade #memadewardrobe #sewyourview
Day 129 of learning to sew ✂️
I started sewing just wanting a creative hobby and now I’m out here making dramatic linen dresses like this is my lifestyle 😂
Still learning. Still experimenting. But every project is starting to look a little more like the clothes I’ve always wanted to wear.
Finished the Breathe Kaftan in linen and this might be my favorite make yet.

Me Made May Day 12 is this cute cropped cardigan by LWS Trims using the Sewn Adaptive pattern., The Cropped Cardigan 💚🤍
This is another great pattern for anyone looking for a cute, quick sew that still makes a statement. I used a stretch twill fabric with green and white trim for a sporty little finish.
As a die-hard Boston Celtics and Philadelphia Eagles fan, this color combo works perfectly for both of my favorite teams. It’s giving sporty, cute, and handmade all at once. ✂️🏀🏈

Fabric possibilities for the Breathe Kaftan? ENDLESS ✂️✨
Here are a few fabrics used so far during this month’s @SewYourView sew along, and honestly… every single one gives the pattern a completely different vibe 💛
From bold prints to soft flowy solids, Breathe was made to let the fabric shine 🌿
And these are just a FEW more options that would look soooo good 👀✨
Which one would you make first? 👇🏾

Serving double looks for this month’s Sew Your View sew along ✨
I finally made my Breathe Kaftan in this gorgeous denim from @lws_trims and paired it with the small size Ida Tote Bag pattern from @SewMoteitbe ✨
Comfort, style, and functionality all in one combo 🙌🏾
The Breathe Kaftan gives effortless flow while the Ida Tote is the perfect everyday carry. Honestly… denim may be my new favorite version of this kaftan.
This month we’re sewing along with BOTH patterns over at @SewYourView so make sure you join in, share your makes, and sew with us!

Me Made May Day 6
Ida Tote Bag and she made her trip out the house to work today. 🙌🏾👜
I was able to fit all my necessities in this tote — wallet, sunglasses, lip gloss bag, hand sanitizer, and 2 notebooks with room to spare.
This was such an easy pattern to make and perfect for a beginner bag girlie like me.
Pattern: @sewmoteitbe
Fabric: Walmart faux suede
Lining: Canvas from Walmart
And yes… another bag is already loading 👀🖤This next one will be black vinyl, I’m just undecided on the lining fabric right now, but stay tuned!
