Pack my handmade (ish) suitcase with me !

🎀 Packing for My Sister's Wedding – Handmade Wardrobe Edition! ✨✂️

Hey sewing friends! Today, I’m bringing you into my bedroom for a very special packing session—I'm heading to my sister's wedding, and (almost) everything in my suitcase is handmade! 🧳✨

From my go-to Ford Bucket Hat and handmade swimsuit to my self-drafted dresses, jumpsuits, and linen pants, I’m taking you through everything I’ve packed—plus a few special pieces I’ve been holding onto for years. Some of these garments are patterns I’ve designed, and others are cherished items I’ve mended and re-worn over the years. It’s all about sustainable sewing, thoughtful wardrobe choices, and making clothes that last! 💕

🔹 Handmade wardrobe staples – Dresses, tops, and my must-pack sewing patterns
🔹 Special pieces for wedding events – Rehearsal dinner, lawn bowls party, and casual wear
🔹 The oldest item I’ve sewn (and still wear!)
🔹 A surprise Kowtow gift (wait till the end to see!) 🎁

I also chat about my original goal for Ford Wardrobe—to one day pack an entirely handmade suitcase—and I think I’m nearly there (minus the Spanx, let’s be real 😆).

If you love slow fashion, sewing your own clothes, and thoughtful wardrobe planning, you’re going to love this video! Let me know in the comments—what’s your most-worn handmade piece? 💬👇
