The End – 365 days of 100% handmade clothing – The Self-Made Wardrobe Week 52

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.

Holy shit! You guys!! It’s done!!!

365 days of handmade clothing is a lot of days…

But we made it, and there’s no way in hell I would have finished this project without you guys, so big huge THANK YOUs all around!

I have some wrap up type information that I think might be interesting – specifically how many times I wore each piece of clothing, & the cost to make divided by how often the piece got worn. I’ll blog about that stuffs next week.

If there’s any other information you’d like to see, or any questions you have about the project, just leave them in comments and I’ll try to answer as best as I can.

In the meantime, I’m going to have a super low key birthday celebration, and unpack the rest of my wardrobe.

Thanks again for all the support for this project!! Hugs all around.
