Welcome to Confident Pants!

Hello!

Becci and Katie here.  We are the two sewists behind Confident Pants.  We are starting a personal me-made capsule wardrobe challenge for 2019.  

Each of us has been moving towards a basic capsule wardrobe, determining our own versions of slow living, and trying to discover how that fits with sewing.  We stumbled upon the world of me-made garments and indie sewing and our wardrobe challenge was born! We each have a monthly wardrobe plan that hopefully will build our skills, fill some wardrobe holes, and challenge us to be mindful as makers.  And let us love up some fabric because, let’s be honest, that’s what we really want to do!

This blog will document our progress as we each work on sewing a mindful, sustainable, and me-made capsule wardrobe.  And have a little fun! (One of us has to have a lifeline friend she can call to get her out of garments she pinned herself into.  We’ll let you guess who.) We are new to the world of me-made garments, so we will track our progress as we develop new sewing skills, sew new garments, and meet new friends in this wonderful world of sewing.  Within our little corner of the world, you’ll find our me-mades, thoughts, progress and tutorials.

We got our Confident Pants on and are ready to sew!  Let’s do this!

B & K
