Oops, my weekly roundup is a few days late! I'm sure you were all anxiously waiting :) I've managed to maintain my streak of at least one handmade garment each day with only one (the first!) repeat garment. Not bad! And now for the week's outfits:
May 18, Sunday: 30-mile bike ride event in Watsonville, CA. I spent most of the day in bib knickers and a cycling jersey, so this is my post-ride outfit (pajamas!)

PJ bottoms: handmade, unblogged

May 20, Tuesday: Substituted for the lab again and final exam for Patternmaking class

I'm realizing that I need more "regular" clothes--basic pants, unfancy skirts and dresses, and simple blouses (not t's). Luckily, Katie over at the Creative Counselor is hosting a Back-2-Basics Sewalong the first week of June. I might have to shift my "basics week" until the following since I have several sewing projects (that are not basics!) due around then, but it's certainly on my radar!
Oo, lovely! You're so clever! I'm just starting out on sewing my own clothes. Great outfits. Jen
