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!

Hi,
I’m thinking about joining as well. But no promises, cause I have a little one of not even 2 months old.
I’m in! I was just planning on doing some sewing for darling daughter and why not do it with some other great sewistas to have fun with.
Count me in!
I’m a down-to-the-wire entry! I’m in, I got ‘Sewing for Boys’ as a surprise gift and I’m setting low expectations…a boy jacket. Bring it!
I’m in !! Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with :D
Why not? I’m in! Still relatively new to sewing but I’ll give it a try :-)
Fantastic. I am in. School is back, school camp is on and there should be lots of time to sew. Thanks for organising.
Count me in! My 2 boys need something cozy)

I’m in…sorta…honestly, if I get 1 hour…total…in a week at the sewing machine I’m happy! My goal therefore will be do spend a little time every day…my almost-2-year-old needs a winter hat plus I have a stash of other things in mind…refashions, a pillowcase dress, some knit pants…

I’m going to have a crack at this .. so pleased that I found out about it this morning :) Not sure how I will go but its great timing for me as I’ve just started making clothes for our little bundle & she is due early February.
One hour a day I can do – 7 days…hmmmm :). It’s the 10th Oct in Australia and it’s Spring so I’ll sign up and cut today so I can sew tomorrow! Off to Flickr now.
sound great, just the motivation i need – count me in!

I´m from Brazil. I´m try!
I’m in! I’ll try to finish at least one blouse for my daughter. It is definitely a challenge to even find 1 hour for sewing. I hope I can make it…
I’m in too – making summer gear for the southern hemisphere summer!
I’m in! First-timer down under :)
