Pledging...

I am nervously joining in Me-Made-May this year!  I loved watching it last year but had only just started sewing so had nowhere near enough me mades to join in.  Not sure I do this year, but I'm in anyway!

 'I, Joanne of Sew Little Time, sign up as a participant of Me-Made-May '13. I endeavour to wear one Me Made item each day (maximum of 2 days per week can be my Anise jacket) for the duration of May 2013'

I'm slightly terrified of this but I can't imagine Zo will come and get me if I don't manage it!  Five days a week will be pretty testing for me.  Even thinking out it has prompted a few changes to sewing plans (more separates - I have a feeling you'll see a lot of Kimono Tees!) and a wardrobe reshuffle to bring my Me Mades to the fore so I can see what I have to choose from.  I guess they should be at the front of the wardrobe anyway!

And I've got a bit of time to sew a few more things, don't i?

I'm hoping to spot where the wardrobe holes are as a result of this, and also push myself to see if I can find outfits for a few orphans!

I'm going to be blogging a weekly round up of items rather than one every day.  I'll also be on holiday during May and although we are supposed to have wifi I don't know how reliable it will be!

Are you pledging?  Is it anyone else's first time too?

    I'm in for the first time... with knitwear. At least the weather looks like it's planning to continue being knitwear-friendly this spring.
    I'll try to wear at least one handknit item every day (and I think I'll consider socks and mitts my last, almost cheating, resort).

    Awesome, good luck! I did it last year but singularly failed to record it or have time to really join in the online banter so going to throw myself into it a bit more this year.
    It will be fun :)

      it will be fun. have a look on twitter and check out the friday challenges - i didn't know about those so it's an extra way of making your pics more interesting (especially for me since people will be seeing things a few times over the month!)

    I'm doing it too, and it is such a great community. I think it's terrific that you are joining in! People set their own challenge and just do as much as they want to, which is fantastic.
