New dress today! This is the Camp dress from Liesl + co. I've never sewed a collar or used my singer buttonholer before, fun to learn those things. #sewing

Latest reread: Memory, by Lois McMaster Bujold. Not a perfect book, but a banger anyhow. (Five stars) I don’t usually reread these books out of order, but this was on my mind because I’ve spent a lot of time at the doctors office, in MRI machines, etc in the last few months.

Dark and stormy cookies from nyt recipes. As someone who barely drinks any more i love the idea of turning cocktail flavor combos into cookies. These are good, and they look gorgeous:

Last day of #memademay , and I found something i haven’t worn yet this month. It’s a tunic loosely based on the Gemma tank.

Terrible photo of a wonderful jumpsuit: this is my custom (@starelaine.bsky.social -drafted!) jumpsuit that i wear every time i have to stand up in public, basically. #memademay

#memademay sauvie dress repeat, it’s finally hot and this is THE best choice for hot weather. The fabric is so light (lady McElroy lawn) and the shape is perfect

I adore pin tucks, i wish they didn’t take forever to sew because shaping this dress by putting in properly-placed pintucks was one of my favorite projects ever. This is self-drafted, inspired by a commercial dress which i desperately wanted and could tell was not going to fit me right. #memademay

Plantain and Arden: these are the best Arden pants i ever have/ever will make, because they’re colorblocked from rainforest print Liberty lawn 🐒🦜🐸 #memademay

Zaire jumpsuit today! I adore this pattern, and i think it has the potential to be incredibly classy, but I’m going to keep making more of them in zany prints because that’s who i am and you can’t stop me :-) #memademay

Finally some warm weather again! I’m in a sauvie sundress. I love this, and it’s a very different dress in knit fabric (this one) as opposed to woven fabric (the one i showed you last weekend). #memademay

Emily @eepbeepbeep.bsky.social · 15/05/2026
Usual stuff, plus a (not me made) denim jacket that i embroidered a snake onto. #memademay

Arden pants and a plantain tee shirt (this one’s new, finished yesterday!) I’m starting to feel a little funny about how many variations on the plantain tee and Arden pants I’ve worn this month, but in my defense, spring is usually three days in the middle of May and not the entire month. #memademay

Emily @eepbeepbeep.bsky.social · 13/05/2026
wearing Rumpelstiltskin socks today (and the coming soon sweater that y’all have already seen). These are made from Targhee sock from oink pigments, hands-down my favoritest sock yarn out there. #memademay

Emily @eepbeepbeep.bsky.social · 12/05/2026
These pants you guys. + They are so soft and comfy 😍 - They have basically no structural integrity left 😭 Anyways, fine for exercising in, at least until the next rip. (Arden joggers from Helen’s closet) #memademay

Today I’m wearing an Ixchel sweater from 2019 (damn, this held up well!) and handknit socks not from a pattern #memademay

Emily @eepbeepbeep.bsky.social · 10/05/2026
Two outfits today: Sauvie sundress for dinner, and an Elysian bodysuit for running this morning. Both of these are (imo) better/nicer than anything i could buy in a store. #memademay

Emily @eepbeepbeep.bsky.social · 09/05/2026
This fable dress is super cute, fits perfectly, very similar to many dresses i wear all the time, and i basically never wear it. Can’t figure out why. Might just give up and turn it into a skirt. It does look nice with a sweater on top — this is talvinen, the first repeat of the month. #memademay

Wearing a heavily modified plantain tee today. Kept hoping to grab a better picture but now it’s nighttime 🤷‍♀️ #memademay
Long sleeve cotton maroon tee shirt, worn by a middle aged white woman with unwashed hair and not enough fucks to get through the day

Emily @eepbeepbeep.bsky.social · 07/05/2026
this is a Maja Cardigan, heavily modified because i am constitutionally incapable of not messing with a good thing, and then it came out way too big, but still a nice wardrobe item for when i want to wear a bathrobe all day but need to leave the house :-) #memademay
Colorwork sweater in navy, pine green, cream and brown-grey. Motifs are vaguely nature-y. Worn by a middle-aged white woman, over jeans and a tee-shirt.

Cinnamomon sweater! I love this with a dress but i almost always wear it with jeans 🤷‍♀️ worn over another Plantain tee #memademay

Emily @eepbeepbeep.bsky.social · 05/05/2026
Funny story here, this is maybe the second shirt i ever made on my serger. After three wears i noticed that *every single seam* was perforated. I had sewn it with a sharp needle instead of a ballpoint 🤦‍♀️. so i cut it apart along the seams and remade it slightly smaller in all dimensions #memademay
A purple tee shirt just slightly too small in all dimensions, worn by me

First nice day in #memademay : tee shirt and linen pants weather. This is the plantain tee and Arden pants, both with my usual mods (i do big bicep and big butt/hip/thigh adjustments to everything i sew)

Emily @eepbeepbeep.bsky.social · 03/05/2026
Sweater weather still? Yup. It’s ok, my bench is deep. This one is Talvinen by Caitlin Hunter. #memademay

It’s #MeMadeMay ! This was maybe my favorite thing about Instagram, i hope it takes off here too. My principles for the month are to wear the clothes I’ve made and to keep the photos easy. You’ll be seeing this shower curtain a lot :-) Pattern is COMING SOON sweater by Susanne Müller

#caturday is for being trapped in the bedroom because the humans need to clean up the kitchen without you trying to eat garlic (again).
