"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.
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.

I am open to share my experience with bitcoin investment and losing money to scammers. However, yes it is possible to recover your stolen bitcoins. I never believed in bitcoin recovery because I was made to understand that it was not possible. However, sometime in October I fell for a forex scam which promised overly high returns and I ended up losing close to $70,000. I searched for a month for help until I finally came across an article on reddit in regards to recovering stolen cryptocurrency so I reached out to him at [recoveryhacker101[at]gmail[dot]com I was so scared and skeptical because I have heard of bad experiences but I decided to give them a try and to my greatest surprise I was able to get all my stolen bitcoins recovered from the scammers within a very short time frame. I don’t know if I’m allowed to share the links on here but you can contact if you also need help.
I’m glad to share how Rapid Digital Recovery helped me during a difficult financial situation. After investing with Coinberry, I faced a major setback when I nearly lost $40,000 worth of Ethereum. As a doctor in Memphis, balancing my career and caring for my six-year-old daughter is already a challenge, and this incident added significant stress to my life. When I first discovered that my funds had been transferred to various soft wallets without my consent, I felt a wave of panic and frustration. The complexity of the situation left me feeling helpless, and I knew I needed expert assistance to navigate this issue. That’s when I found Rapid Digital Recovery. From the moment I contacted them via EMAIL: contact @ rap iddigitalrecove ry. org, I was impressed by their professionalism and expertise. They understood the urgency of my situation and immediately got to work on tracking my funds. Their team was knowledgeable about the various tactics used in cryptocurrency theft and the steps needed for recovery. They took the time to explain the process to me, which helped ease my anxiety. Rapid Digital Recovery utilized advanced tools and techniques to trace where my Ethereum had gone. They kept me updated throughout the process, providing reassurance and clarity when I needed it most. Their diligence and commitment were evident, and it was clear that they had a solid strategy in place for recovery. Within just a week, I received the incredible news that they had successfully traced and recovered my lost funds. The relief I felt was indescribable; it felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. This experience not only saved me a significant amount of money but also restored my faith in the possibility of recovering lost assets in the crypto world. I learned a valuable lesson about the importance of due diligence and having reliable resources when dealing with cryptocurrency. I can’t stress enough how grateful I am to Rapid Digital Recovery for their support during this challenging time. Their expertise made all the difference, and I highly recommend their services to anyone facing similar issues my experience with Rapid Digital Recovery has been a turning point. They helped me navigate a difficult situation, and thanks to their assistance, I was able to reclaim my lost funds. This journey has taught me to be more cautious in my investments, but it has also shown me the importance of seeking help when needed.

I’ve read numerous stories of individuals losing bitcoin through fraud. I prefer to start by stating that the organisations in charge of bitcoin security have done nothing to assist in the recovery of lost or stolen coins. In my case, my computer was hacked and someone with access to my emails stole 4.3 bitcoins. I contacted blockchain right away, but they wasted my time. I then looked for help elsewhere and was directed to speak with a bitcoin professional who helped hunt down and recover my bitcoins for a charge. After the job was finished, I was more than happy to pay more. I’m glad I got help, and I want to urge you to contact recoveryhacker101@gmailcom.
