I thought it might be fun to share with you the clothes that I made and took on my holiday to Mexico this year. I made quite a few outfits leading up to my holiday. On occasion I got very excited about this holiday and made too many summer clothes.

I did not make everything I took on holiday. For example I took with me ready to wear bathing suits. It was not worth me making nay since I already had a few sets and I’m not living in them during the summer anyway.

In no particular order, these were my handmade/me made outfits I wore during my holiday in the sun ( I already miss the Mexican weather).

In this one I am wearing a woven Kinder cardigan (free pattern with Wendy Ward’s book sewing with knitted fabric) using a polyester satin fabric I tested for MinervaCrafts. The shorts pattern came from Patrones magazine (Spanish sewing magazine similar to Burda Style) issue 395, It was made using cotton fabric I got at Abakhan Bolton. I blogged about the shorts here.

This is the Zephyr dress pattern from Deer and Doe. This was my January project for Minerva Crafts blogger network. I used scuba fabric to make it. This was my second rendition of this pattern. For more details about my first version please click here.

Going through the pictures from the holiday, I was surprised to realise that I did not take pictures of all the outfits I had with me. I was having way to much fun. So following are me made items that I wore during my holiday.

This is a jumpsuit I made while testing some cotton lawn fabric for Minerva Crafts. A post is due to be posted on their blog in a couple of months. The pattern I used t make this is from the Lutterloth (the Golden Rule System) pack I bought at Abakhan Mostyn. Seems I’ve got the jump suit bug now. I’ve made a few this year so far. And I am tempted to make more.

I total I had with me 3 camis. Pattern is Ogden Cami from True Bias. I made quite a few of them and blogged about some here, here, here and here. I use this pattern a lot to use up leftovers from other projects. The fabrics were from Abakhan, Minerva Crafts or from a sewing meet-up swap.

For this one I used the Lutterloth system (The Golden Rule) for the pattern and the fabric (from MinervaCrafts) is a 100% cotton. When I picked this fabric to test (detailed blog post is soon to be published on Minerva Crafts blog), I wanted to make a dressing gown for my holiday. Of course, it’s fun wearing it during the summer around the house as well.
