Me-Made-May 2016

Sweet Zoe from So, Zo..... What do you know?  is administrating another Me-Made-May this year!  Yay!  I remember when I first began sewing clothes for myself how I used to imagine how it might feel to participate in the month of May's international coming together of ladies who sew their clothes, and in 2014 I had the great good fortune to participate for my first year.  My poor pathetic collection of handmade items were scarce and at a new beginner's level of competence..... but the kindness, support and encouragement the ladies showed me will never be forgotten.  So, without further ado.........
me-made-may'16

 'I, Lisa from Lisa's Carolina, sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May '16. 
I endeavour to wear handmade clothes each day for the duration of May 2016'

Go to Zoe's website by clicking here to see all the different ways you can participate.  

In years past, I noticed my photography skills took a big upswing during the month of May as I attempted to photograph my daily outfit, so I'll be doing that again this year.  I'll also try to get out and about a little more and use South Carolina's natural beauty as my backdrop.  That's always fun.  It goes without saying I'll be participating daily on Flickr as that's the best way to be a part of the international community, imho.  I will also be using Instagram.  Don't know if I'll be posting daily here, on the blog..... but then again I said that last year and almost posted daily anyway! 

Zoe makes it clear this a a no pressure participation, no competition, and that's what I like so much about this group.  You make your pledge what YOU want to make. 

And Thank You Zoe, for putting this together again this year!!!
Happy Sewing Everyone!

    1. I think this venue is where we 'met' 2 years ago? Another reason I enjoy MMM, is to meet such lovely ladies from all over the world. Look forward to seeing what you wear this year too! :)

  5. You had fun last year, and your photo's were so lovely too. I am sure you will enjoy this year as well - and I am looking forward to seeing the results. I still have not made up my mind - that seems to be my norm every year, and then I don't. Maybe I should surprise everyone this year and take part?

  6. I am like Sarah Liz - I sort of want to join in, but then maybe it is just too much of a commitment. I think I will cheer you and everyone else from the sidelines, and it would be nice to see more of your beautiful state.
