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!

Yay! First year I’m participating!!
KCWC sounds AMAZING! I am so happy to play along this year:)
Count me in.
Since i am returning to work I need this to keep me motivated.
I will be in as well! I always make kids clothing anyway!
Rae sent me here! Just the little push I need – thanks for the invitation to play along and for the wonderful blog.
I’ve been debating, but I really want to make this happen. It’s been way too long since I’ve done anything crafty, so I’m in.

Sounds like a plan, like so many others I have the ideas just not the time or motivation..

I’ll join! My daughter has outgrown all of her clothing…every last bit…..so she is definatly in need and I have a stash staring at me.
I’m in ! As I’m home, I’ve go time to sew, I have the fabric, no excuses ^^
I am so excited to join this year!!! Woot! I’ve watched from the sidelines for the past couple of years, but this year I’m finally situated to join in. In fact, just last week I was wondering, “I wonder when the KCWC is this year?” Good thing it’s now, ’cause my kids need some new stuff! Thanks so much for hosting this!
Me, too! I think I forgot to sign up…even though I’ve already washed my fabrics, made my list and even posted my plans on the kcwc board at flickr. :-) I haven’t missed a kcwc for the last 3 years and I am so happy when it’s time again!!!
Sounds like a fun challenge! Looking forward to giving it a try!
I’m excited about participating this year! It will be my first time and I can’t wait to see how much I get done!
sounds like a great thing to motivate me to work on some projects that I haven’t gotten around to doing yet! count me in!
I am so excited to have stumbled across this tonight! My sister and I just started a blog this week and I know she will want to join me in the challenge! Sign us up!
