A little bit of new baby sewing always makes me happy. Bonus, I had enough fabric leftover to make a matching t-shirt for big brother, which he immediately wanted to wear out for the afternoon 😍

Pattern: waves & wild Overitalls and Lunar t-shirt
Fabric: lovefabric.ie

I'm glad to have something light and comfy to float around in in this weird humid weather, and I will definitely make this pattern again. It has massive pockets, and the tie waist makes it flexible in size too.

Pattern: Closet Core Patterns Charlie Caftan (view C maxi)
Fabric: Viscose from myfabrics.co.uk (not available any more though I think, it spent too long in my stash before I used it!)

My first go at a Charlie Caftan. It's very much a "I learned a lot" garment. The fabric pattern is very forgiving so it's not as obvious that the inset square is pretty wobbly and not nearly as neat as it should be. But it is totally wearable, and this fabric is super soft and breezy, so it's very comfy. And I learned how to avoid the mistakes I made for next time.

Trying something out! I don't normally tweet about my hobbies, but I'm in the mood to experiment a more diverse public profile w/ Mastodon.

My hobby toots will have a CW label. As for content, these are some of the things I'll be obsessing over:

Why not also try a poll: Hobby content on academic profiles? Yay or Nay?
