So today I talked about all the things I have made in May 2021. Here are a few more details that you may find useful about each item :

I am wearing in this video, my Simplicity 8601, in a crepe fabric I purchased from Minerva.com

I started the month sewing up 10 face masks, using the Dhurati Davies pattern, in several scraps of fabric and fat quarters I had in my stash. You can find the pattern and instructions here :
