kcwc fall 2011!
September 13th, 2011
It’s time again for another edition of KCWC: kids clothes week challenge. KCWC is a twice-annual event where I challenge you to commit to sew children’s clothes for an hour each day for 7 days. Fall is coming (at least in these parts) and my kids could use some cozy pants and sweaters–and pretty soon we’ll need hats and mittens too! All that sewing is a little overwhelming, but I am always amazed at how much I get done by putting in a bit of time every day.
If you have more questions about how KCWC works, you can jump over to the FAQ page. Then jump back here and leave a comment on this post telling me you are in! That’s all it takes. Then on the second week of October there will be hundreds (really, hundreds) of people cheering you on to make awesome clothes for your kids.
In the mean time, feel free to browse around the elsiemarley flickr group for inspiration–join the group so you can post pictures for this one–and look at my posts from older KCWCs! If you have a blog, you can copy and paste the button below (fancy, html code to come when tech support/husband returns). So leave a comment and sign up! spread the word! sew like crazy!

I’m in, I have a pile of fabrics at the ready – now, what shall I begin with?
oh, I’m in, even though my kid is more or less in the too-old-to-wear-anything-you-make stage. I’m hoping I can get her to adopt the cowl. good luck.
I have been following you for a while now, and will finally take the challenge!

I’m in! I should have a newborn (Due Oct 3), so will be around the house to participate!
Count me in, Meg! I need a fire under my a…I mean I need some inspiration in the form of peer pressure to blow the dust off my sewing machine and get rolling again.

Brilliant! I’ve never been able to take part in one of these before but I will definitely be in for this one! I am busy sewing for the next four week for a craft fair I’m doing so this will come straight after that. I can’t wait!
