 Hi you guys, Lindsay here. Welcome back to my channel Inside the Hymn. Today I am excited to talk about my plans for September. If you saw my makes video then you know I went a little nuts in August and made a gajillion things. So September is going to be a little bit more low key. Mostly two because I have two trips planned in September that will take me away from my studio, away from home where I won't be able to do any sewing. So I'm going on an anniversary trip to Boston. It's our 10-year anniversary this year. Very exciting. And then at the end of the month I am headed to New Orleans where I will be seeing my girl Taylor Swift in concert. I am so excited. I feel like she's been on tour forever and ever and everyone else has gone except for me. Everyone else has seen it except for me. I mean I know that's obviously not the case but I just feel like we're at the tail end of the tour now and so I'm ready. It's my turn. So I'll have a couple of DIYs that I'm doing for that weekend. Mostly just some like iron-on vinyl type of t-shirts. I already made my costume or the outfit that I'm going to wear to the show. I made that back in January if you remember the rainbow sequin top and like little leather short that I made. So you'll get to see some of that at the end of the month on my social media accounts. But for the sewing for September I have a few things. One is it is so my style time no no style maker fabrics. It's style maker fabrics time again meaning her fall fabric collection is getting ready to launch. She's already got a couple of fall fabrics on her website. They are awesome as always. Super great quality. I love her stuff. I'm going to be getting the swatches next week I think or maybe this week later on this week. Either way I'm going to be getting them and doing the swatch video very very soon. That is going to go up in September. And then the items that I am making for the tour for the like the blog tour that fabric will be coming in as well. I'm going to be making the style arc sally jeans skirt out of some stretch stretch denim stretch something stretch twill a camo print because in case you haven't seen camo is all the rage it's the new animal print it's the new neutral people are just putting camo on everything. So I'm making like a denim skirt out of that fabric and then I've got a really really cool idea for a sweater I am going to be using a sweater pattern that I already own or like a yeah sweater sweatshirt top pattern that I already own and I'm going to be doing like a little hack to it to create something that in my mind is really really really cute and I'm very excited about it so that's going to take a little bit of thought to get that together but both of those are coming up sorry I have no fabric to show you but if you can imagine camo and then like raspberry ribbed sweater knit try and picture that in your mind that'll be my outfit for that. I'm going to be doing another um project with buyanny.com if you remember I did the take a stand tote bag last month and this month I'll be doing the clam up zippered pouches so with all the travel that I have coming up these pouches are going to be great I am of the mindset that when you travel you need to be really organized that way you don't leave anything at home you don't leave anything in the hotel room and you can kind of stay tidied up in such a small area um so I like everything to have its own bag I put um like I use the packing bags for like my garments separated by category and then like all of my like toiletries and everything else all has bags so I'll be making up some of these and seeing like what I can switch over from purchased um how to purchase zipper cases to these um so I'm really excited the way that the take a stand tote turned out I think these are going to be um equally as great and I'm going to be using some of the fabrics that I've got from the um from the um modern maker box that I was subscribed to last year I'm still using those cottons and I find still a good jillion reasons to use them so if you are looking for a way to like stock up on cottons and things that you can use for like little scrap busters here and there still go check out the modern maker box okay um I wanted to show you a little sneak peek I couldn't add this to my um makes video for August because it's not done yet it is very very close but it is not done but so I thought I'd give you a sneak peek and let you know that I'd probably be finishing it this month but here is the bird dress yay so this is a Carolina Herrera fabric that I picked up in New York City and I decided to use um a bird style pattern for it oh there's still pins in there um added some piping and some cute details it's got great pockets and you know just really worked on you know this whole side panel pieces a little bit tricky but I think that I have gotten there the fit is a little tight um I find that the bird of patterns run small do you guys find that I even sized up from my muslin and it's still it's still very tight so thankfully this is a stretch cotton sateen um thankfully I'm losing a little bit of weight still so that hopefully I will be able to wear it and have it look nice so um so yeah stay tuned to see more on that I really just have like the neck facings and the arm facings to do next um okay and then for some my style this month it is the chalk and notch fringe dress and top or blouse which I do think is super super cute and I'm excited to make it I hemmed it hot a little bit about making the dress or the top and I think I've settled on the dress just from seeing so many other people's makes but and I um really want to do it in something that's lightweight and drapey I looked at my cottons like my chambres and stuff but I I don't know maybe I'm not convinced of this fabric either this might be too lightweight but this is the direction I want to go this is a ray on shally um from free spirit you guys have seen this before this came in one of those um kits that I got from fabric mart is that right fabric mart fashion fabrics club one of those that does the kits um I got this fabric originally for a maxi skirt um pattern but I think that would make a really cute fringe dress if any of you have made it before you're thinking about making it for semi style in september um let me know if you think rayon in this kind of print you know very vertical print would be good that's kind of where my mind is at but anyways um that is it for my makes I don't even have a refashion planned yet for this month um which isn't a very good sign but I do have some clothing that I purchased from goodwill in the past that I just need to kind of go through and find my inspiration for and and sort out a plan so I might end up eking out a um refashion but maybe not I really want to though because I'm I think I'm on track maybe I've missed like one or two months I don't know anyways those are my plans for September um I encourage you to follow me on instagram and facebook and twitter I post a lot of progress pictures and stories and things like that there so if you want to see what I'm doing in the meantime between the plans video and the makes video um please be sure to follow me on social media I am at inside the hem everywhere easy to find um but in the comments of this video please let me know what your plans are for September sewing wise or otherwise are you traveling I know a lot of you have sent all of your kids off back to school but there are a lot of you who don't have kids so let me know what everyone is planning on doing now that the weather is finally starting to cool off a little bit um I want to know just kind of what you guys are getting into so if you enjoyed this please give the video a thumbs up it really helps out a lot and until next time I'll see you all very soon bye
