I, julie k, pledge that I shall abstain from the purchase of “new” manufactured items of clothing, for the period of 2 months. I pledge that I shall refashion, renovate, recycle preloved items for myself with my own hands in fabric, yarn or other medium for the term of my contract. I pledge that I will share the love and post a photo of my refashioned, renovated, recycled, crafted or created item of clothing on the Wardrobe Refashion blog, so that others may share the joy that thy thriftiness brings!
The pledge officially starts on May 1st. I’ve got a lot of projects already in mind. I hope to go more than two months. We’ll see!

Good Luck…I myself have taken up after my mother pattern’s & fabrics are so much cuter then the junk you buy in stores. I’m not as fancy as you but making mine & Dori’s clothes gives me a sense of accomplishment!!!
What a great idea! Now if I could only get my oldest son to STOP GROWING LIKE A WEED!! All the spring rain and sunshine and they boy has grown 4″!
I think I will pledge something besides clothes…hmmmm…
