Me Made May 2017 has come to an end 😢 It was a great International sewing month and glad that I managed to participate again for the fifth year. Nothing changed from the previous years, my outfits were dresses with very little separates garments in between. Before I write more about the outfits that I wore, I want to say thank you to  Zoe  for organising this great challenge, my dear Husband who very patiently took pictures and all sewing friends in Instagram  and  Facebook Page  for the comments and likes during the whole month of May.
