"MAKE MORE THAN YOU BUY" Summer Challenge of Handmade Clothing - Part 2

In a world of fast fashion, handmade clothing carries a special kind of charm and authenticity. Each piece is infused with the love and creativity of its creator, making it truly one-of-a-kind. By taking the time to craft your own garments, you are not only expressing your individual style but also reducing your reliance on mass-produced, often unsustainable clothing.

That's what this "Make more than you buy" summer challenge is all about - welcome to PART 2! The second pattern featured in this series is the Recess Play Pants by Matchy Matchy Sewing Club. You can find the pattern here, and you can read more about my experience with the pattern, below. 

"MAKE MORE THAN YOU BUY" Summer Challenge of Handmade Clothing - Part 2

What you need: 

Pattern Review: 

This pattern was a little more advanced than I usually try, although still a beginner friendly option. I wanted a quilted version of the pants, so I pieced scraps into panels based on my sizing, and quilted them to backing fabric (without the batting in between).

Positives:

  • The instructions are super easy to follow and diagrams were helpful.
  • The pattern includes different options for the waistband and ankle finishes.
  • The final fit is really cute and stylish. I can't wait to make another pair!

Negatives:

  • Sizing ran a little large. I selected a size based on my measurements and the sizing chart, but they ended up large. Thankfully, I hadn't prewashed my fabric, so after a wash and dry, the pants fit slightly better.
  • Added length needed if you are tall (which is not really a negative, just an observation.)

Not only does making your own clothing allow you to express your personal style, but it also promotes sustainability and ethical fashion practices. By choosing to make your clothes, you have full control over the materials you use, ensuring that your garments are made to last. This conscious decision-making process can help reduce waste and lessen your environmental impact.

So, this summer, why not challenge yourself to make more than you buy? Embrace the art of handmade clothing and revel in the joy of creating your own unique wardrobe pieces. Not only will you have the satisfaction of wearing something truly special, but you'll also be contributing to a more sustainable and conscious fashion industry. Let your creativity soar and let your handmade creations tell a story all their own.

It’s quite unfortunate that too many people have fallen victim to the vast array of online frauds, resulting in large losses, some accountable to life-changing consequences. I was a victim of fraud of about $80,000.00 by two binary platform films, the Ingoinvest binary option and I was devastated and confused. But thank God for my neighbor who introduced me to a legit and certified binary recovery expert company that helped me recover all my lost funds If you have found yourself in the middle of an online losing streak, though the emotions that inevitably accompany those losses can be devastating to your confidence. Do not worry. Contact Recovery Hacker101 (recoveryhacker101@ Gmail com)

I was able to reclaim my lost Bitcoin assets worth of $480,99 which i had lost to the scam company known as Capitalix fx a scam company pretending to be an investment platform which alot of people including myself have lost their funds to, sadly not all would be fortunate enough to retrieve back their funds like I did but if you’re reading this today then you’re already a step closer towards regaining your lost digital assets, Mr. James successfully retrieved back my funds in less than of 48hours after I sought for their help to get back my funds. This experience has taught me the importance of carrying out my due diligence before embracing any financial opportunity presented to me and while risk taking may be a part of the journey, some risks are not worth taking and never again will I involve myself with any online financial investment. It’s only right that we seek for external intervention and support of a higher knowledge system when it comes to digital assets recovery, Get in contact today with the team to get started on Email: jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com or what’sapp +31645857860.
