It\u2019s May (already!), and this month there are lots of ways to share your sewing creations and to sew along with friends. If you’re looking for a little inspiration or a jump start to your sewing mojo, this is a great place to find it! Here are some of this month’s online sewing events.<\/p>\n

During the entire month of May you can take part in Me Made May<\/a> which is a challenge intended to encourage you to wear and enjoy the clothing you\u2019ve made. The fun of the challenge is that you can set your own participation level, so it\u2019s really up to each person how you play along and how you interpret it, so it’s perfect for everyone! On Instagram use the hashtag #mmmay19<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Me<\/a><\/p>\n

Mini Me Made May<\/a> (the kid’s version of Me Made May) is where you have your kids wear as many handmades as possible during the month of May. Tag your photos with #minimemademay<\/a> on Instagram.<\/p>\n

\"Mini<\/a><\/p>\n

Make clothes for your kids alongside your virtual sewing pals during Kid\u2019s Clothes Week<\/a> which will be taking place May 20-26. The challenge is to commit to sewing clothing for children for one hour, each day, for seven days. Tag your makes with #kidsclothesweek<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Kid's<\/a><\/p>\n

And, finally, Project Run + Play is traveling to Europe for Season 20 which will take place May 6-June 1. Sew along with your friends with four different themes<\/a>. (I’ll be a judge for one of the weeks, too!)<\/p>\n
