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!

I’m in- this will be my first KCWC so I am looking forward to getting off my butt and doing it! Can’t wait to see everyone’s creations :)
Ooh, sounds fun. I’m hoping to give it a go. Will be my first time. :)
I’m in again. I am sure I can persuade my kids to let me make them a thing or two :)
I’m in! I’m hoping this will motivate me to tackle the overwhelming mountain of ideas!
I’m new and in…can’t wait to see and share!
I’m in! I’m excited to see what everybody makes!
I’m in! First time actually participating, and I have a bunch of stuff just waiting to be sewn up! I got lots of inspiration looking at stuff from the spring week and so I’m excited to see more!
Goodie – i can’t wait! i have some super cool vintage trims and 80s patterns which are calling my name, desperate for a week dedicated just to them….. ooh the possibilites.
me too! me too! can’t wait!
Count me in. I’ve been waiting for a while to join in with something like this!
Ah, perfect timing – I was just thinking to myself that I need some motivation and I dust off my google reader and find there’s a KCWC approaching. Count me in!
I’m in! First timer as well, so excited!
Okay, a little intimidated at the thought of sewing stuff for someone to WEAR but at least he’s little so he won’t know or care that the stitches are crooked!
Another first-timer here – I can’t wait!
Thanks!
Ready to sew like crazy!
Sounds like fun! I’m in!

Excellent. I’ve been looking forward to it. After a lazy, hot summer, I need to do some serious sewing. Thanks for organizing it again.

[…] be that time again! Just a few weeks left to plan for the Fall Kids Clothes Week Challenge over at Elsie Marley. I’ve been saving my inspiration in my Pinterest wee dress gallery, follow the links for […]
I’m in! Just missed it last time around and I’ve been looking forward to it. Hooray!
