Just me and my sewing machine.
I’m so glad you’ve found my blog. I’m really excited to start sharing my passion for sewing plus size clothing that fits, is stylish and comfortable and will make you feel just as lovely as you truly are. Not only that, but it’s unique, just like me … and you!
A change of clothes makes you feel fresh and sets you up for what’s next
My Mum once told me that when I was a kid, I often used to change my clothes several times a day. I still do. You can’t do the garden in your work clothes, you don’t want to put your smelly gardening clothes back on after you’ve had a shower, you don’t want to wear your lounging around clothes when you go out for a coffee or to see a movie with a friend and you get changed into a nightie or pjs at bedtime, right? Whatever you’re wearing, the most important thing is that you’re comfortable and feel good.
What do your clothes say about you?
Do you see clothes as purely functional or do you dress to make a statement? What kind of statement?
One thing I really enjoy is people watching and especially seeing how they dress including shoes and accessories. I never hesitate to tell someone if I really like what they are wearing. I love giving compliments and seeing the joy it brings the person. I’ll even approach strangers in the supermarket to say “I really that blouse!” Often that will be followed by “Do you mind if I touch the fabric?”
It’s a great conversation starter. People will start talking about where they go that particular article of clothing and even other things they are wearing or items in their wardrobe they pair them with. They say what it is they like about their clothes (and what they don’t like). A person’s personality really comes through when they talk about their personal sense of style.
What do my clothes say about me?
To be honest, right now, today (8 April 2024), I think my wardrobe is a bit drab but I definitely want to change that. That’s part of the reason I started this blog. I want to share my journey from a drab wardrobe to a fab wardrobe.
In fact, part of this blog is going to feature some of my more stylish friends (mainly lovely plus size friends of course). However, I have a fair idea about what looks good and what makes me feel good.
I hope my blog will inspire you in sewing plus size clothing.
