2019 is turning into an incredible year for crafting and making and we don’t see that changing any time soon! As of May 1, #MeMadeMay2019 has kicked off. This is the hashtag being used by makers all over the world to highlight the items of clothing they have made in an effort to promote sustainable fashion. Just before that it was #FashionRevolution, another incredible moment in the DIY fashion calendar, highlighting the human and environmental costs of fast fashion. Now more than ever, we are seeing how important it is to know the story behind what we wear. And the best way to do that is by making it yourself. To help inspire you, we’ve collected some of the most popular sewing, knitting, quilting, crochet and embroidery patterns of 2019 … so far!
