Not a bra but a swimsuit

Oct 22, 2019 By LaineeMakes

When contemplating this perennial question Why do you sew? – This is why I sew.

Feeling a bit "posty" today and for once I have time. Thanks @hennaayub for the prompt. I blogged about why I'm not setting a #makenine2020 but doing #finishnineandtherest2020. Too many unfinished items are actually stopping my flow. . . . . . . . . #laineemakes #finishnine #isewmyownclothes #sewistsofinstagram #sewcialists #makersgonnamake #makersgottafinish #sewover50 #finishthosewips #crushtheufos #sewincolour #pocwhosews
We were in Siem Reap a couple of weeks ago. This dress is definitely a favourite of mine. Lightweight viscose is perfect for hot sticky days. At Angkor Wat we marvelled at ancient architecture and at the power of nature working to reclaim the earth. #funfact if you recognise the last picture, this was used as a location for the original Tomb Raideraider film. #laineemakes #travellingsewist #travellingsewingblogger #cambodia #siemreap #angkorwat #ilovesewing #sewingingismysuperpower #sewover50 #sewincolour #sewistsofinstagram #pocwhosews
Where am I? Wearing memade in Cambodia, that's where. It's not sewing, but I wanted to say hello. Far away from my sewing room but still lurking here and enjoying all of your wonderful posts. P.S. Finally did my blog summary of 2019 if you're interested. #linkinbio👆 #memadetravelwardrobe #travellingsewist #isewmyownclothes #travelwardrobe #cambodia #battambang #elgartravels #wegotoo #sewover50 #pocwhosews #sewincolour
Happy New Year to all my friends out there. Hoping 2020 will be full of good times for all of us. Here's my memade outfit that I wore to celebrate with friends. My ancient Vogue coat from the early 90s and this red velvet rtw hack from earlier this year. . . . #happynewyear #happysewing #sewistsofinstagram #sewover50 #sewincolour #POCWhoSews #sewcialists #sew50reworn
It's finally here! After several tries, I got my colours. Blue and beige strong. I love those purples but have no idea what I made in that colour. It's probably something non sewing. I still like this it's becoming one of my sewing traditions. #yearofcolour #yearofcolour2019 @yearofcolour #igtrends #mycolours #sewistsofinstagram #sewincolour #sewover50 #POCWhoSews
Hello everybody, here's my #topnine2019. A bit of a mixed bag, that's about right. Happy Christmas or whatever you are celebrating❀❀❀ #happyxmas #happysewing
Ahh it's been a while! I've been home from my trip for ages but I just haven't been feeling any sewjo or general mojo for that matter.😐Turns out retiring for real takes a bit of adjustment. Anyway, I've been lurking in the background and decided to get back in. I was looking back through my summer and thought I would share my holiday wears. I found that I was memade for a large chunk of my trip. I discovered Your Closet app while I was away and I'm using it to record my wears. Blank days are either RTW or I can't remember. 😁At some point I plan to do this for a month at home to see what I'm wearing all the time. #elgartravels #yourcloset #memadetravelwardrobe #memade #whoaminow #POCWhoSews #isewmyownclothes #sewover50 #sewcialists #sewistsofinstagram #nosewjo
Not sewing, but really pleased to see this real-woman-sized mannequin front and centre in this lingerie shop. Well done Parfaitement Culotté, Colmar. Things are changing bit by bit. . . . #sewmysize #sizeinclusive #bodypositivity #bodypositive #lingerie #realwomansize #sizematters #sewover50 #sewcialists #POCWhoSews #sewincolour #sewinclusive #parfaitementculotté
This cute ginger girl latched onto us and took to sleeping on our car. She almost stopped us leaving lake Como a couple of days ago. Heading north now. #notsewingrelated #elgartravels #travellingsewist #catsofinstagram #2ndhandcatlove #gingercat
