kids clothes week fall 2012
September 18th, 2012
The temperature has dropped and fall is finally on it’s way! It must be time for another edition of 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 too!
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.
So what are you waiting for? Sign up! How do you sign up? Just leave a comment on this post telling me that you are in. Then go tell all your friends to sign up too! Spread the word on twitter, instagram, pinterest, tumblr with the #kcwc hashtag. Slap a button on your blog or on your facebook page. Link to this post and try to get all your facebook friends who sew to join too. I bet your mom would like to be invited. Last year I think there we had almost 700 people sign up. Can we make it to 800? 900? Now I’m starting to sound like a politician! Go knock on some doors for kcwc!

I’m in! I can’t tell you how many projects are sitting on my sewing table undone because I don’t have the time to finish them! This will be the perfect reason to get them done. Great idea!!
Count me in! I have so many things I want to sew for my kids – now I just have to work out what are the highest priorities. Thanks again for the motivation!
I’m in! I have some new patterns that need to be finished!
YAY! Spring KCWC never took off for me due to life being all PAY ATTENTION TO ME. This Fall – it’s so on. :D
I felt really left out when I didn’t join up last time! I’m totally in, although it’s spring sewing here :)
I’m in!
I’ve been looking forward to this as I missed out on the Spring/Summer one, and the weather has definitely turned to autumn here (London)
I’m going to plan my wish list tonight and I’ll be blogging this time too!
I’m in! My daughter definitely needs some fall clothes, although the weather here won’t get cold for a few more months.
Yeah! I’m in!
Oh I’m so excited!!! This will be my first time and I can’t wait to get going!!!
I’m in! I even have some patterns traced and fabric choices made (by the boys). Perfect!

I am so in!!! I have been waiting for this! I am going to try to get some of my newly sewing friends in too. :)
