I made this top from the legs of some pants I turned into shorts. They make such a fun set. Unfortunately the straps had stretched on these - tbf I didn’t reinforce them in any way. This one was just cutting down the length and reattaching the straps. Fits much better now. - ThreadSky

Well that's me two hours in, most of the way through my Monét & Monáe playlist, and halfway through the pile of clothes. I'm making good progress. Time to break for lunch.

Okay I had to swap an item out bc it needed three things done to it and today is all about simple straightforward fixes. Anyway I've owned this shirt for years and I never wear it bc of the fit. Now it fits at the waist. It's actually ridiculous how long I've put off these projects.

I really thought I'd kept the button that fell off and then I thought I could use a fun button but noo. These white ones work nicely and it matches the mismatched theme. This is my current favourite shirt.

Reading that made in India tag made me think about where I got all these clothes and the breakdown is 4 thrifted, 2 handmade, 1 second hand, and I have no idea where I got the black leggings from I've had them over a decade. I'd say I'm on track with my goals 🤠

I've wanted one of these for ages and now I have a new problem. All this extra fabric. I could make a cropped top with that lovely thick waistband. I love a matching set. Or, I could use that fabric to make the sleeves bigger and more voluminous. I don't believe there's enough to do both. What to do
