I'm a little late jumping on this wagon, though believe me I started dreaming and planning as soon as Sarai and the Colette team announced the challenge back in early April. I really like the idea of this challenge as I want my sewing to create a wardrobe, not a bunch of clothes that don't really go with anything else and therefore get limited wear.
The main thing that slowed me down was the mood board, I have watched previous challenges and have loved seeing everyone's fancy boards and was determined to do the same. This resulted in downloading multiple programs, as surely it was the programs fault that nothing seemed to work as I thought it ought to, and lots of words that sound like 'trucking fell'. Several rage quits, more time than I care to admit and lots of tutorials later I have a mood boards that I am happy so share with you!
First of all even though I am in the Southern Hemisphere and we are heading into winter, I'm participating in the challenge with spring and summer in mind for a couple of reasons. As I am very new to sewing none of my pieces are going to be ready very fast so this gives me lots of time, and time is a wonderful thing. Also as a new sewer easy projects are what I have in mind, and although I am sure that there are winter projects that I could handle, shorts and simple tops are all I feel comfortable aiming at for now.
With that in mind here is my mood board.
