I had such a lazy day and it was fantastic! Took I had such a lazy day and it was fantastic! Took a nap mid morning and then just puttered around the rest of the day. The weather is grey and rainy so I layered an Icicle Creek over a Greenwood and called it good. Totally unrelated, I made a shampoo bar last weekend and I think I like the results. The biggest difference I have noticed is a lack of body in my hair the first few days. Today I even tried no conditioner. One less step sounds good to me. . . #ssdiciclecreek #ssdgreenwood #straightstitchdesigns #memademay21 #mmm21
My favourite guy took me to Costco and lunch today My favourite guy took me to Costco and lunch today. That called for a bit of dressing up. What an exciting life I live 😉 I started the morning with these distressed jeans and a rayon Meadowood. But got chilly almost immediately so I threw on a linen Leavenworth. It's the perfect light spring layer, plus this colour 😍 After a day in hard pants it's leggings, a hoodie, and wool socks for a socially distant cocktail evening with friends. What are you up to on your Friday? . . #ssdmeadowood #ssdleavenworth #straightstitchdesigns #memademay21 #mmm21
Never got a chance to snap a picture today so it's Never got a chance to snap a picture today so it's a dog walk in the yard pic for you today. I went for comfort today and threw on my ice dyed Icicle Creek and jeans. Easy peasy and comfortable. I created this pattern for my Makers Retreat in 2019, I am already planning for this year's pattern. What garment would you like to sew at the retreat? . . #ssdiciclecreek #icedyed #straightstitchdesigns #memademay21 #mmm21
Not only is it a month of outfit pics but you are Not only is it a month of outfit pics but you are getting a tour of my yard 😉 I didn't make it long in this outfit because I got really cold but it was cute while it lasted. This is a chambray Leschi paired with RTW black jeans and suede moccasins I have had forever. I love these moccasins so much I got them resoled a few years ago. Does anyone else get shoes/sandals resoled when they wear out instead of replacing? I have the best cobbler in Seattle that will have some Birks to fix this fall. . . #ssdleschi #straightstitchdesigns #memademay21 #mmm21
It's sunny! Not warm but sunny which lifts everyo It's sunny! Not warm but sunny which lifts everyone's mood. Today is all about the neutral look. This is the Remmel Tank in slub linen I designed for @sewnews a few years ago, it needs a bit of mending attention but I just keep wearing it. Paired with a lengthened Phinney Ridge in french terry, jeans, and Birks. I love this woven tank as a layer through the year and a simple tank in the summer. . . #remmeltank #ssdphinneyridge #straightstitchdesigns #memademay21 #mmm21
Spring is a funny time on the west coast. It can Spring is a funny time on the west coast. It can be warm and sunny one day and cold and grey the next. As you can probably guess it's a cold and grey day today. I don't mind the cold and grey because it means I get to wear all my favourite layers. Today I am in yet another Greenwood tank with a Fauntleroy over the top. This version of Fauntleroy is the original with a smaller armhole and a tighter fit overall. The updated version of the pattern had a looser fit throughout, which is my preference. Throw on some jeans and casual runners and I am ready for all the errands after school pickup. What is your go to running around town outfit? . . #ssdgreenwood #ssdfauntleroy #mmm21 #memademay21 #straightstitchdesigns
This outfit is far from picture perfect but do dar This outfit is far from picture perfect but do darn comfy for day 2 of Me Made May. The pants are very old RTW joggers that are in rough shape, but I don't care because they are comfy. I threw on a Greenwood tank after my shower but then got cold so I added the Phinney Ridge. This is a very typical outfit for me through at least 3 seasons a year. #memademay21 #mmm21 #ssdphinneyridge #ssdgreenwood #straightstitchdesigns
I don't know what Me Made May is going to look lik I don't know what Me Made May is going to look like this year... But I will start off strong with my favourite garment and see what happens the rest of the month. This linen Meadowood is perfection. Goes pretty great with my new wood and resin earrings from @sadiefoxstudio too. What are your plans for the month? . . #ssdmeadowood #straightstitchdesigns #memademay21#mmm21
Today is the day, and now I need a nap. Fauntlero Today is the day, and now I need a nap. Fauntleroy, Leschi, and Greenwood have been updated to my 0-34 size range. Fauntleroy has some new options, Greenwood has a much better fit, and Leschi has two cup options. If you previously purchased the pattern and don't see the download link in your account, please visit the link in my bio to fill out the form. I will get you access to the updated pattern as soon as I can. #ssdfauntleroy #ssdleschi #ssdgreenwood
