nani IRO month is going on strong around blogland and you can follow all the stops on the Miss Matatabi blog. The projects have all been SO AMAZING. I love seeing how each person has been using the already gorgeous fabrics to create such unique garments (and an amazing blanket).
Today, I’m sharing another top I made for myself as part of the Miss Matatabi Makers series. I used the Shine Many Ways – A print in sateen. Check it out here.
I’m posting over at Miss Matatabi today with my May Miss Matatabi Makers project. Errr . . . let’s pretend it’s still May, ok?
I made a MINI Sidekick Mini Suitcase with this adorable Nesshome Cheater Patch fabric. It was no small feat and I thought I might never finish, but a few nights worth of hard work and I’m reeeally quite happy with how it came out. The inside of the case is lined with some super soft double gauze too. Go and check out all the details and plenty more pics at Miss Matatabi!
And did you catch my Happy Homemade Sew-Along announcement?? Be sure to get all the details there AND today is the last day to enter the giveaway for a copy of the book! Go now and enter!
It’s no secret that Miss Matatabi is one of my favorite online sources for fabric, especially Japanese fabrics like Nani Iro. Frances always has an amazing selection of high quality fabrics and she’s a total sweetheart on top of all that. So I am really excited to announce that I get to be one of the regular contributors on her site, sewing up a new project every month with some fabulous fabric from her shop, along with 3 suuuper awesome ladies!
We’re the Miss Matatabi Makers and you can read all about us here.
My first project as an official MM Maker is up on the blog now!
I made a big bow Washi Dress in some gorgeous voile AND it has a secret modification to make it nursing-friendly! Head over to Miss Matatabi for the full post with all the details and how I nearly ruined the whole dress with an accidental serger slice!
And while you’re over there, be sure to check out the other recent posts from Leslie, Angela, and An. So much fun inspiration and gorgeous fabric!
Happy Monday 🙂
