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!

I’ll give it a go. I have a little dress that needs finishing off.
I’m very happy I found this! I have so many thing I want to do and this is a great motivation to get started!
This time I will love to sew like crezy with you.
Im in! This is the first year that I have a baby to sew for and I’m so excited to join in on the fun!
Im so busy right now, but determined to get at least a few things sewn this week!!
OOOH! I want in! I want in!!!! : )
I think I’m a tad late to the party…but I’m going to sew my little heart out this week! What fun!
Right, I’ve done it now, no backing out. Talk about deciding at the last minute!
Is it too late to sign up? I think I can take it on this year!
Very late, but I’m in, too!

Just the push I need to do something with all the thrift clothes I bought as a foray into upcycled sewing. I’m in!
Not sure if my previous comment got caught in the spam file (it hasn’t shown up)…so here goes again:
I’m diving in! Thanks for the inspiration!
PlainJane :)
I’m in for the challenge!!
I’d love to join in, as long as having my projects pre-cut counts. I am slow in a lot of things, and cutting it one of them. I’m a beginner sewer so I think that’s why it seems to take me forever. So I spend about a day cutting things and then sew them when I am motivated. I think I’ll get faster as I get more projects done
I’ll give it a go. I’d planned a nice vacation wardrobe for my daughter and me. Vacation’s creeping up and not much is done yet!
