one month to go – The Self-Made Wardrobe Week 48
The Self-Made Wardrobe is a project where I only wear garments I’ve made.
It’s a year long experiment in getting dressed without clothing labels –
it’s a year about noticing patterns, trying things, and observing what happens.

Hello July!!! Welcome to the last month of the self-made wardrobe!! Wooo!
Amazing Holly! Sometimes I get the urge to take the baton when your year is over–but then I remember I don’t even have one item of clothing I have made–ha! But . . . that doesn’t stop me from fantasizing.
Maybe you have addressed it on your site somewhere, but what would you recommend for a good starting sewing machine (I def. don’t knit)? I have been looking at the Janome.
Thanks and can’t wait to see what you will wear the first day the challenge over.

Thanks Jane!! I love that you’re interested in making your own clothes! Having a handmade wardrobe at the beginning of this project definitely helps this sort of project succeed. 😀
All of the major brands have pretty good starter sewing machines – you don’t need something fancy. If you can, I’d suggest going to a store that carries a couple brands and try some out.
