kids clothes week spring 2012
March 21st, 2012
Spring has sprung and that means it’s time again for kcwc! Kids Clothes Week Challenge is a bi-annual event here on elsie marley where I challenge you to sew one hour a day, each day for 7 days. The idea is that we all have the urge to sew clothes for our children, but we don’t always give ourselves the time to do it. If you commit to sitting in front of your sewing machine, or tracing patterns, or cutting fabric, for one hour each day, then at the end of the week you will have some very well dressed kids. And a very proud mama (or papa) too!
All you need to do to sign up is leave a comment on this post. If you would like to know more about kcwc you can check out the kcwc faq page. You can also head to the elsie marley flickr group to check out creations from kcwc past or see all my posts on kcwc here.
If you would like to sponsor elsie marley during kcwc, I would love to have you! Kcwc has become wonderfully successful, so much so that traffic to this little blog doubles during kcwc month! Sponsor spots go up a bit in price ($40) but it’s totally worth it. Drop me a line if you’d like to get in on the action. elsiemarleyblog@gmail.com
Okay! leave a comment and sign up! spread the word! and sew like crazy!

Hooray!!! I am so ready for this. I have a new serger & everything.
thank you for this challenge! too often i sew for my business and the clothes i want to make for my own kids get pushed on the back burner. i’m ready to rock out some threads for these boys!
I’m in! I had a mini KCWC the other week, and it turns out I really missed sewing! Hopefully I will be able to find the time during the challenge–I have a lot of knitting deadlines coming up. But I’m thinking that if I cut my fabric now-ish, I’ll be able to use the sewing time as a little break.
Hooray! I’m so excited for it this year, lots of plans!
Can’t wait! Seems like the kids have grown in leaps and bounds this winter and I am ready for some new spring sewing!
Yay, I’ve been looking out for this post. I am really excited to take part for the first time.
I’m totally in! I have a stack of fabric just waiting for summer clothes for the kids. This is just the kick in the pants I need.
Count me in!!! It’s been a while since I’ve sewed…..I’m a little nervous!
I’ve been so looking forward to kcw! I’m in!
I’m in! I got sick the week of fall challenge, so now I am really geared up.
I have been watching these forever and I think, after getting my sewing machine tuned up, that I am finally in for this one. Can’t wait!
Count me in, should be fun to see how I do!
so excited, this will be 2nd time!
I’m going for it this time!! Thanks for the challenge!
oh man, i am so in! my son’s pants are all of a sudden all capri length…
Alright! I’m in! I definitely want to make some cute clothes for my daughter for the summer, and this might just be what I need to accomplish my goals.
Oh brilliant – I just checked the calendar and the 23rd is the day school starts back after mid-term break so I’m definitely in! I’ll be doing autumn clothes though :)
yes yes yes! i was hoping this was coming around the bend….i need it!
I’m looking forward to it.
I am in. Looking forward to it and starting to plan already. Thanks!
ooh, I’m in. I have the itch-some people spring clean, I spring sew.
I signed up for the last kcwc and life had the nerve to interfere. Fingers crossed for this one!
I am all over this!!!! This current heat wave combined with a growth spurt had me wondering when KCWC would be. :)
Yay! I’ve been (impatiently) waiting, hoarding fabric, stockpiling patterns. <3 love kcwc!
Yes! Have been checking your blog for the dates! Had such fun with the last one :-)
Would love to join in
