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!

Count me in!!! Seriously just what I need to kick my arse in gear…I’ve been one selfish sewing momma but the kids really do need clothes :o Must make stuff for them too :)

I got a couple of blissful days of sewing in when my husband took my kids camping recently, and I was reminded of how much I miss and love sewing! I always look forward to KCWC, and this time I’m going to say YES!
This will be my first KCWC! So excited!!!
I need some motivation to try and get some sewing done. Count me in!
I’m in. I’m also nervous. But, whatever!

I’ve never heard about KCWC until after it has started but this time….I’ll put it on the calendar and sew along. It always looks like so much fun.
