As I look back at my sewing for 2023, I found that I did not do much sewing. My sewjo really took at vacation. It did slow down my purchasing both fabric and patterns. Here is what I found:
Most sewn patterns:
1. Fabrics-store dot com Phoebe Tank. This is easily the most sewn pattern I have ever owned and it was free.
2. Love Notions Allegro Bottoms. This is a great elastic waist pant pattern with pockets.
3. Liesl & Co Classic Shirt pattern. This is a great basic. Designer has tons of information on the website about this pattern. Definitely will change over to short sleeves for spring.
Most loved patterns:
1. Merchant & Mills The Camber Set. I have made this dress multiple times. Quick and easy. The dress that I made this year with it was a linen blend. The linen was definite perfect for the pattern.
2. Itch to Stitch Taroko Skirt. This is another great basic. This is not as quick and easy as item 1 but still a good one.
Most disliked item that I made:
1. Blue-gray Phoebe tank. Not sure why I did not love this top. I thought for sure that I would love this but the fabric was a little different with this one and I just did not find myself reaching for it very often. In fact, everything else had to be dirty for me to even considerate it.
2023 Sewing Reflection:
I realized that I did not do as much non-apparel sewing as I had intended in 2023. As much as I love sewing apparel, other things are more creative. Maybe that was what caused the sewjo vacation. I also realize that I did not come close to accomplishing my list of goals that I made for 2023. All I can do is keep trying.
How did your 2023 sewing end up for you? Were you happy with what you accomplished?
Happy Stitching!
