This May I’m joining Zoe at ‘So, Zo…’ in a challenge to wear something handmade every day for thirty-one days. This post marks the beginning of the saga.
I, Amy of Sew Well, sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May ’12. I endeavour to wear something handmade each day for the duration of May 2012.
I enjoyed Self-Stitched September last year, and I’m eager to see how different this coming handmade month will be with eight more months of sewing under my belt. Last time I had to really think out my outfits, and I imagine this time will be much of the same. Also, last time I got a little burnt out taking photos every day and posting every third or fourth day (hence the five blog posts total in October last year), so we’ll see whether I can find a way to make that easier on myself this time around.
Who else is in?!
P.S. I updated my last post, but just in case some of you didn’t see, the biopsy confirmed that the mass was a benign fibroadenoma. All’s well. (Whew.)
Hiya! I’m also taking part. Will look forward to seeing your outfits!
Same to you!!
YAY! I’m so happy to hear the results were negative! I’m doing MMM12, too! See you there!
Hooray! I can’t wait to see the stunning outfits you put together!
God for you! Also, so glad to hear that biopay came back okay!
I know you aren’t into challenges, but it would be fun to see you there even if only a few times a week…
Glad to hear the good news! I am also doing MMM12. I make a weekly collage of my outfits and post once per week. I only do an extra post if I create something new.
I think I’m going to post once a week as well. Me-Made May Monday! See you there!
Glad to hear your results were negative…which sounds bad but is actually good.
Anyway, I’m wondering about doing weekly round-up posts for MMM too. Looking forward to it!
Glad to hear the test was negative, what a relief for you!
Thanks! And, yes, what a relief!
Fantastic that the result was negative. Great news!!!
Thanks! I didn’t realize how much it was weighing on me until after I got the good news. It’s been quite a nice week since then.
I’m fairly new to your blog but still glad to hear you have the all clear – the big ‘C’ scares are very traumatic which ever way they end. The MMM12 sound very interesting – not sure I have enough of my own handmade clothes (that’ll teach me for making more for others than myself) but I’ll give it a go 🙂
Good for you for making things for others! Back before I took on this SWAP, I’d made a decent number of things for others. I feel like the SWAP has made me really selfish, but it’s also likely going to make my MMM efforts more creative!
Looking forward to seeing your MMM12 creations. I just signed up, and can’t wait for the challenge. Congrats on the negative biopsy. Take care!
So glad to hear the results were benign! Yes! It’ll be a really fun me-made month, at least as a reader!
Good luck this time around! I feel ya about the posting every day – I’m going to pace myself too, but sticking with the one handmade item a day. I’ll be following along! 🙂
Oh and great news about your benign results! That’s fantastic!!!
