Happy Tuesday, friends. I always like to make plans, especially for sewing. Because it keeps me focus on what I should make and avoid unnecessary sewing, also avoid wasting my precious time. I was checking my stash last week and realized that I still have enough fabrics to sew for a few months, which means I don't need to visit the fabric shop 😁 Honestly I always laugh when saying this.  I'll keep my promise but you know that fabric shopping is therapy and makes us (sewist) happy. My sewing plans this month are still the same as the previous month, I'll be sewing garments that I'm sure I will wear. Also, I will continue participating in the two challenges on Instagram, #magamsewalong and #sewyourwradrobebasics. I'm planning to make two dresses, one knit top, one slip dress to wear at home and one bathing cover-up to wear in case I'm going to the swimming pool. And here are the plans, all fabrics are from stash and leftover from the previous garments...

Hello everyone, Today post is about my sewing plans for  Magam Challenge and about other things that I want to do in the next couple weeks. For Magam June plan, I want to make an outfit - a very comfy t-shirt and a skirt. For the fabrics: T-shirt, I will use 1.5 yards of knit cotton in white color and for the skirt, I will use 1.5 yards of floral stretch cotton. For the patterns, T-shirt, Burda pattern 113/114 from Burda Magazine from June 2008 in Spanish edition. I saw the minimum size is 38, so I have to draw size 36 by myself and I saw that the t-shirt had nice detail in the armholes and sleeves, but I am not sure which one will suit me. So, I will try both styles - with or without gather. I will see later...   Skirt, I will use  Burdastyle pattern 10/2013 - 123 size 36 - for sure I have to make adjustment on the waist. The skirt has a slight flare and decorative large hip-yoke pockets. Ima...
