Kid’s Clothes Week – Day 1

If I had known it would be so much fun I would have participated in Kids Clothes Week so much sooner.  As I headed off to preschool with my oldest this morning all I could think about it would be a few hours before I could get started on my sewing for the day.  Once school was over I convinced the kiddos to play for a bit so I could make my first project of the week, the Sleepy Robe by Melly Sews.  Let me just start by saying what a great pattern this is.  Not only did she offer this pattern up to everyone for free, score!, but it is a quick and easy sew.  Start to finish it probably took me about an hour, but I know that is mostly because it was the first time I had done the pattern.

Kids Clothes Week

For close to a year I have watched all these amazing ladies create things for their kids during the biannual kids clothing week.  It always looks like so much fun I just never got my act together in time to participate.  Another edition start tomorrow and I actually planned everything out and got started last night prepping.  All of my patterns are cut out and ready for fabric tonight.  I am hoping to have all of the fabric cut out tonight so that tomorrow I can just hit the ground running sewing.  I know it is going to be a challenge since my list is actually quite ambitious in terms of time I have available during the week, but all of the patterns are ones I have been wanting to make and should be a nice variety for both kids.
