"MAKE MORE THAN YOU BUY" Summer Challenge of Handmade Clothing - Part 3
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 3! The third pattern featured in this series is the Hollyhock Romper. You can find the pattern here, and you can read more about my experience with the pattern, below.
Pattern Review:
Positives:
- This pattern was surprisingly beginner friendly, the instructions are easy to follow and diagrams were helpful.
- The sizing is inclusive, and the shape of the outfit is flattering on a wide range of body types.
- The final fit is really cute and stylish. I can't wait to make another pair!
- Some Etsy reviews recommended lengthening the torso, but I am 5'10" and felt the final length was perfect.
Negatives:
- The final piece was a little larger than I had hoped, although outfit is designed to fit loosely - the romper pattern does not utilize a zipper or buttons, you just pull it on. So the waist of the romper also needs to accommodate the hip measurement, which means the waist is loose fitting.
- This isn't really a negative but the design requires a lot of vertical seams, so a serger is definitely helpful to give a smooth finish.
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 want to take a moment to express my deep gratitude to an incredible man who helped me during one of the most challenging times in my life. After a major disagreement, my husband and I found ourselves on the brink of divorce. It felt like everything we had built together was slipping away. That’s when I reached out for help, and through his guidance, we were able to rebuild the trust and connection we had lost. His advice was thoughtful and full of compassion, helping us communicate better and see the love we still had for each other. Today, my marriage is stronger than ever, and I owe so much of that to his support. I’m forever grateful wiccalovespelltools@gmail.com or his website :
