yeah, I want to avoid transferring my desire of clothes into a desire for fabric. I’m trying to cut down on stuff. I can see moving house in a couple of years and I want to be leaner.

Good move on the whole “avoiding RTW” thing. I vowed at the start of 2015 not to buy any new clothes for a month (I was a minor shopaholic) and then extended it to a year. I now find I’ve lost all interest in buying clothes. I’ve bought a couple of things this year, but I’m MUCH more thoughtful about where I buy from.
I do, however, have an ever-increasing fabric stash. Oh well, no-one’s perfect.

Thanks Sus,
There are so many bloggers making beautiful bras. The day will come where I will make my own bras but I’ve found one that fits me, is easy to get, beautiful and affordable, so I don’t feel overwhelmed to make them at the moment. They require many specific notions.
I have made a lot of bodysuits though. I like to make my own shape wear so I will write a post about that.

I think you should write about undergarments, bras etc…
As for this post… How clever you are! Have used apps to generate colour palettes before but never one of myself. Remember the big seasonal colour analysis craze years ago? It was always even more useless for people who didn’t neatly fit into one category. Off to seek ideal lighting conditions!
P.S. Looking forward to your upcoming entirely handmade wardrobe…
