AstaZW Gather Dress by Birgitta Helmersson. For something so simple I sure did take my time with it! I think I finished sewing at the end of last year (it's already on the 2024 makes post...) but did not make the buttonholes or add the buttons until the last few weeks. Made from a thrifted duvet cover and is more of a wearable toile. For the next one I want to get a narrower width, longer top and not so low cut neckline. The making itself was fairly painless, especially since I used Birgitta's tutorials on her blog to sew some of the trickier bits. Opted out of using the offcuts for reinforcement as that felt like unnecessary waff. I've already plans to make a blouse version of this too! Feeling brave today and wearing this to work to see how it works in the day-to-day. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sewing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sewing</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ompelu?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ompelu</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/secondhandsewing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#secondhandsewing</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/slowfashion?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slowfashion</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/handmadewardrobe?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#handmadewardrobe</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/handmade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#handmade</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/zerowaste?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#zerowaste</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/zerowastegatherdress?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#zerowastegatherdress</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/birgittahelmersson?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#birgittahelmersson</a>

AstaHi! I'm migrating my posts from one instance to another, sorry if you're seeing this one again! Things I've made in the past! This one is the Etta bum bag from Fibre Mood that I've made twice so far. Both are made from recycled fabric (potentially entirely? I cannae remember). The patterned one I had just enough of to use on the visible parts, the back is just plain brown. This was the first one I made and I messed something up because the zipper came loose on one end, but the second one is in constant use to this day! I'm planning to make more of these, maybe add a lining and some embroidery as a decoration. :) <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sewing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sewing</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/handmade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#handmade</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ompelu?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ompelu</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/FibreMoodEtta?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FibreMoodEtta</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Fibremood?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fibremood</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/EttaBumbag?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EttaBumbag</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/secondhandsewing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#secondhandsewing</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/slowfashion?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slowfashion</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/handmadewardrobe?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#handmadewardrobe</a>

AstaBeing an absolute sewing tornado today and shortened two second hand dresses into tops and FINALLY made buttonholes for my zero-waste gather dress that's been waiting for them since..... January? Longer? I don't even know.Oh and also sent a job application I've been working on all weekend. 100% won't even get an interview but it's good to practice.(That's Oona in the background, she's hungry and is not shy about letting me know.)<a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sewing</a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/ompelu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ompelu</a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/zerowastesewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#zerowastesewing</a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/zerowastegatherdress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#zerowastegatherdress</a>

AstaSkirt: on. Really unhappy with the fit, somehow it ended up too loose around the waist despite how much I thought I tightened the elastic! I think I will buy more of the same material (spied an unused pair on Vinted 👀) and redo the dang thing, this time with an actual pattern and belt loops! On my way to the first craft club meeting, I am nervous!!! 😱 <a href="https://pixl.fi/discover/tags/slowfashion?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slowfashion</a> <a href="https://pixl.fi/discover/tags/sewing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sewing</a> <a href="https://pixl.fi/discover/tags/secondhandsewing?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#secondhandsewing</a> <a href="https://pixl.fi/discover/tags/ompelu?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ompelu</a> <a href="https://pixl.fi/discover/tags/upcycling?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#upcycling</a> <a href="https://pixl.fi/discover/tags/handmade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#handmade</a>

AstaTaas menin ja luotin Suuri Käsityö -lehden ohjeistuksiin tarkistamatta niitä ensin, koska olen tyhmyri joka ei opi virheistään.Taas puran tikkauksia joita ei tarvis purkaa jos olisin ensin tarkistanut.Huoh.(Kuvan kuminauha ja vyötärö ovat molemmat ohjeistuksen mukaisia.)<a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/ompelu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ompelu</a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/kasityot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kasityot</a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/sewing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sewing</a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/handmade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#handmade</a>
