Hi fellow sewists, here is my first garment of 2019! A jersey shirt based on  Burdastyle Draped Jersey Shirt 09/2018 . This shirt is my entry to January's  #magamsewalong  with theme "Joy" and also I've chosen my theme of the year "stashbusting". So, this month I chose a bright pink jersey fabric from stash and pink is a happy colour to me 😊

Happy New Year 2019 to all fellow sewists and followers. I've been away for a while, busy with a lot of good things but still sewing and knitting. Hope all of you had a lovely time as much as I did. And today, I decided to share my 2018 Make Nine round up. I didn't complete the nine garments that I was planning but glad I finished six garments and one in progress.
