Everything I sewed for myself in 2020
Hey y’all, today I’m recapping all the things I sewed for myself in 2020. I’ve never done a list like this before, and it’s interesting seeing it all on one place. Last year didn’t feel like a year I sewed a lot of things, but I counted 35 makes! Almost all of them are pictured below.
I think the reason it felt like less is that more than half of these were sewed in the first three months of the year, and then my productivity slowed wayyyyyyy down once the pandemic shut downs happened. Also I sewed a lot of masks at that point, which I didn’t add to this video.
Here’s a video, which you can also watch on YouTube here, showing all the pieces.
Details and links for all these makes. Note that fabric is described but not linked as I’m not sure about current availability of any of these fabrics.

Amazing. Well, I guess you won’t need to sew any more for at least a couple of years! (Don’t they say in the western world we all have enough in our wardrobes to see us through this life and the next?!)

Sometimes we do not realize how much we have accomplished till we can see it all together. You made a lot of really nice things. I love the recap of the year idea and did that on my blog as well this year and think I will make it a regular things. I did not even post all the stuff just a sample and I too could not believe how much I really got done till I saw it all together.

Wow, great range of items! I rarely buy any clothes (limited items in “my” size) and the ones I do own need updating as I’ve filled out somewhat and can’t bear to throw them out. Think it’s time I ceased donating my time to other causes and made myself the priority for 2021.
