Hi Sewcialists!
TNT month is officially over, here is the round-up of those last makes, shared just under the nick of time for our TNT challenge. I’m Isa (@isaribeiro1), and I blog at Uma Crafter Portuguesa com Certeza. I confess to not being able to finish my TNT challenge in time, as I’m writing my Cheyenne shirts are ready, but I was only able to finish them on December 1st, if you want to check them out, keep following the hashtag #sewcialistsTNT. I promise I’ll share them soon, and I bet I won’t be the only one sharing new content there, as so many people have rediscovered their beloved TNT’s and started making more and more.
Without further ado, here are those last posts, organized by type of garment – I decided to focus on newly made garments, since OWOP has started we’ve been seeing a ton of TNTs shown in their daily wear style, yet to keep this post sort of short I thought that new TNTs should be given the stage. If you’d like to see the not-so-new TNTs do have a look at the #sewcialistsTNT hashtag feed. I hope we’ve added every post for this month in these roundups yet, if we missed you, it may be because you have a private account or we just accidentally missed it, so please leave a link to your IG picture or blog post in the comments!

And because we love to see pictures of TNTs side by side, here is some eye candy that popped up this week:
I hope you had fun playing with you favorite patterns, to achieve TNT status. I believe I can speak in behalf of all the Sewcialists that contributed that we had a blast organizing this challenge month. Stay tuned for the next challenge and if you love to sew, and love to share your makes on “sewcial” media (ha!) don’t forget to use the #sewcialists hashtag!
Editor’s Note: February’s theme month will be announced in early January, and until then, we’ll be continuing our “Who We Are” series every Friday!
Thank you for going to all the work to sum up these beautiful TNT’s for last month! I don’t do instagram so I would have missed all these otherwise! I have that Linden “gold” pattern and haven’t made it up yet but I’ve been wracking my brain for a good pattern to make up some undershirts for myself (I read recently the most ideal undershirts for warmth, comfort are silk knit so I ordered about 5 yrds from Dharma trading). Now I know just the pattern to use!
I have really loved seeing all the TNTs and taking part. So motivational. Thanks for the kick that I needed. Really looking forward to the next theme month now. Xx
I’ve enjoyed TNT month so much! As a new sewist, I tended to flit from pattern to pattern. Discovering the concept of TNT patterns was a real game changer for me – a great strategy to make clothes that fit and will get worn.
The wrap-ups have been fantastic!
