If it’s September, it means that for my Minerva Blogger Network project I chose to make a garment that I don’t really need in my wardrobe, but I just wanted to make. This year’s project is a bolero (Vogue V9276*)made with sparkly fabric. I just loved to make one, even though, this year there are no fancy occasions I could go to wearing something like this.

It’s my birthday month and my present to myself is to make something that I love, whether or not it’s useful. One day, I am sure it will come in handy.
