kids clothes week spring 2011
April 14th, 2011
Spring is here and my kids have no clothes to wear. Well not really, but definitely not enough cute, springtime ones. KCWC to the rescue! If you have no idea what I’m talking about, that is completely understandable. KCWC stands for Kids Clothes Week Challenge. It’s one week (I’m sure you figured that out) where we commit to sew one hour a day for 7 days. Sewing clothes, of course, for our kids! Or other people’s kids, but not your inner child and absolutely not your canine child.
Sound good? Want to make a big pile of little skirts and dresses and shorts and bow ties? Because a lot can happen in a week if you put in a little time each day. And with hundreds of people sewing along with you and cheering you on, well, you can’t help but make great stuff! So leave a comment on this post to tell me you are in! Then grab a button and post it on your blog (if you’ve got one) to spread the word. You can even head over to the elsiemarley flickr group to check out past KCWC and join so you can post for this one.

I’m in !
I am totally in!
I’m in! Sounds like fun! I have plenty of fabric and 2 little ones.
[…] for Knot Shorts while you are at it. Maybe even make some or at least put them on your list for KCWC. Do you have a list […]
I’m in! Just bought 8 yards of super cute fabric for my two girls! :)
I’m in! I’m excited, I followed this last year but didn’t have any cute kids of my own. Now we’re expecting a little boy due June 6th, this will be the perfect opportunity to knock out some of the sleepers, shirts and of course a little bow tie that have been languishing on my to-do list. :)
Sign me up, I’m in!
I’ll be a little late in joining but I’m in! Third time, and loving this!
I’m in! My boys need a whole lot of little shorts and rompers (while they’re still little enough to wear rompers!). Looking forward to it.
I’m going to try best. Goodness knows my boys need some clothes!
I’m with you!!!
Oh I think I’m in, I’ve got a stack of projects to get on with, children’s clothes included so this should be a great motivator, will do a blog post then I really will be committed!
[…] thought I’d get a bit of a head start for the Kids Clothes Week Challenge, which I am really excited about. I can’t remember the last time I used my sewing […]
i accept the challenge!
I’m in! This is great!
I’m in! The boy desperately needs some shorts for spring.

YES! i just popped over to see if there was going to be a challenge. i’m happy to see i haven’t missed it and can’t wait to get motivated to sew again!! thanks for hosting : )
I try to sew one day a week. But I don’t seem to get much accomplished. This will help.
I’M IN!!! This is going to be fun!!!
I found out about this challenge whil I was visiting Grosgraine blog. Sounds like so much fun! I have fourteen grandchildren this will not be a problem at all.
I’m in. I have way too much fabric and my kids need clothes for the spring and summer.
