  Hello, I started making a skirt yesterday and hope to finish in time for the end of selfish sewing week.  There are times when being selfish can be a good thing - hopefully it will make me a better sewist, which means I can be even more selfless when I share my sewing project results :) Good luck and happy crafting everyone.

  I love the idea but it I wish it wasn't called "selfish." I don't want to feel selfish when I sew for me.

  well, i know there are multiple definitions... for this event "chiefly concerned with one's own pleasure" is our focus. i like to think that we're celebrating ourselves and the positive side of selfishness :)

  I saw it as part of that internetz sewing/crafting trend of consonance.  At least "selfish sewing" is grammatically correct.  "Me made May," cute as it is, makes my teeth hurt.
