Announcing the September Challenge!

September is special – this month we’ve giving you a free pass – instead of setting a new challenge we are going back in time to revisit an old challenge, any old challenge you like…

You might be new around here (or been lurking for a while?) and wishing you could have participated in that amazing challenge but you missed out.

Perhaps you started a challenge and never finished it (I am holding up two hands!) or you did but it’s been so long since the challenge month you are too embarrassed to post it! This month you have some extra time to sew on that last button, stitch that hem and get it up for us to see.

Have you dreamt about having another crack at a past challenge you particularly enjoyed?

How about all of the above?!

This is your month!

Catch up, revisit, repeat, complete…and finally get some closure.

We’ve got some exciting things in the works for October – more info on that coming soon 😉 –  so now is your chance to clear the sewing table of all the TMS UFOs and prepare.

When you post remember to categorise “Amnesty Month” AND the category for the original challenge, that way they all end up in the archive for future blog reading.

Check out all the past challenges here and click on a button. You’ll find the announcement post with all the details at the end and you can browse through all the archived posts for some great inspiration.

Tell us in the comments what challenge(s) you will be completing and why?

  • Have you told us what you thought of Indie Pattern Month yet? We’d love to hear what you have to say.
  • We’re enjoying the extra chatter over on our Facebook group page, it’s the perfect place to discuss all things TMS and share your sewing progress. Come join us.

  2. Yes!!! This is too perfect, how us it you read my mind Mel? ! I have my Miss Bossy Cynthia Rowley dress, that so many folks were kind enough to take the time to vote on, all cut out but I have not sewn it yet. (embarrassed smiley face). I felt so bad since folks were took the time to vote, comment and give feedback and suggestions and I never got to finish it. So now I can finish it and post with abandon! The fun thing? The fabric is all black and white, so I can claim it under Miss Bossy and MonoSewn. 🙂 I so happy.

    • I think we all need some catch up – I’ll be tackling my Miss Bossy too. I also feel bad having not finished it. It was a lot of fun getting everyone to vote so yay for having an extra month 🙂

  3. You’ve all done such wonderful work this past year, organizing and growing this group. HUGE congratulations and MANY pats on the back for such encouragement to each & every individual involved.

    Now, if possible, you’ve crowned your success… An Amnesty Month. Might be able to post a few things sewn quite out of sequence, but daren’t mention specifics yet. Might jinx the lot!
