Make It Yourself in March!
- Words by Peppermint
Are you a Miss Sew & Sew in the making? Love seeing what other people are stitching up? Then sign up for Me-Made-March! Blogger Zoe Edwards is inviting crafty citizens from all over the world to show off their own creations by wearing at least one me-made item every day during March. The items can be clothing, jewellery, shoes or accessories – anything you can wear, basically! If you’re a blogger, post your outfit pics on your blog, or put them up on the soon-to-be-created Flickr group, where you can also check out what other participants have made. For more information and to sign up, head on over here.
