vintage may is here again!

i’ve got an exciting announcement – Vintage May is back!

Vintage May: Presented by Craftiness is not Optional and skirt as top

my pal Jess of Craftiness is not Optional and i had such a blast celebrating vintage style last spring (here’s my series round up if you’d like a refresher), we knew as soon as it ended that we’d want to do it again! we’ve rounded up a whole new bunch of vintage/retro-loving guest bloggers and changed the format slightly – Jess and I will each introduce our guest and post a preview photo of their project, but our guests will keep their content on their own blogs. then you can browse around their sites to see why we love them! we’ll link to each other too, of course, so it’s one big linky circle of life.

we’re also welcoming grown up sewing this time, not just kid projects! super excited about that part.

little skirts with vintage flair

here is our combined list of lovely guests, in no particular order:

Disney from Ruffles & Stuff :: Miriam from Mad Mim ::

Jen & Autie from iCandy Handmade :: Delia from Delia Creates ::

Jessica from A Little Gray :: Alida from Alida Makes

Melissa from Melly Sews :: An from StraightGrain

Kirstin from Kojodesigns :: Shannon from luvinthemommyhood

Vanessa from LBG Studio :: Jessica from Happy Together

Heidi from Elephants & Elegance :: Dana from MADE

Miranda from One Little Minute :: Erin & Caroline from Hungie Gungie

we LOVE to see you sewing along with us too! please post your projects sewn with vintage fabric, vintage sheets, vintage patterns, vintage-inspired patterns, etc. to the vintage may flickr group (feel free to add old projects or new ones, adult or kid!). need some inspiration for patterns/tutorials to use? i’ve got a few ideas here.

here’s a little sneaky peek of my first project…

    I am excited this series. I am taking inspiration and sewing up lots of vintage inspired stuff this month – vintage fabrics and patterns. I have posted the first one on my blog – inspired by my favourite children’s book! 🙂 suz

    Ooh, my thrift store has so many vintage patterns. I might have to snatch a few up and join in! Can’t wait to see what you guys are sewing!

    Woo! Love this series. I have a few items I’ve been holding off on, because I wanted to do it along with this. YAY! And what a fab line-up. So excited!
