Sew it Yourself!

Welcome to Fresh Modesty!

Thank you for stopping by! Fresh Modesty? What kind of name is that? It means just what it says. Modesty. Fresh Modesty. I absolutely love the definition of "Fresh":

FRESH: 1. newly made or obtained. 2. recently arrived; just come. 3. new; not previously known, met with, etc.; novel: to uncover fresh facts. 4. additional or further: fresh supplies. 5. not salty, as water. 6.retaining the original properties. not stale or spoiled. 7. not tired or fatigued; brisk; vigorous.8. not faded, worn, obliterated, etc.: fresh paint; a fresh appearance. 9. looking youthful and healthy: a fresh beauty that we all admired. 10. pure, cool, or refreshing, as air. 11. clean, crisp, and uncomplicated. 12. exciting. appealing. informed. up-to-date.

Oftentimes once a Christian girl has convictions on modesty, she falls into a rut about what to wear, or not to wear. Eventually we become frumpy, homeschooler-y, or even legalistic. Let's dash the stereotype that pops into one's mind when the words "modesty" or "homeschooler" are mentioned. Modesty is not defined by the culture around us, but rather by the Word of God.

In trying to encourage girls towards being cute but covered, I developed a method for creating a modest swimsuit for yourself! Yes, you can sew a swimsuit! Really! For more information, check out this page.
