Kids Clothes Week Inspiration for You

October 19, 2013 by Abby 11 Comments

I’m still deciding what to sew next week for Kids Clothes Week, so while I make my mind up I thought I’d pull together a round up of the boys clothes I’ve made in the past… a bit of a reminder for me and some inspiration for you!

Kids Clothes Week has grown into such an online community event and I always look forward to it. I was really disappointed that I couldn’t participate last time, but I’m determined to get something made up this round, even if Ted has other ideas! The event has grown so much since I first participated that there is now a whole community and site dedicated to it! You can join here and see who is participating and what they’re doing. I love the idea!

Are you going to be joining in? What are you planning to make?

    I’m making a christening outfit and two baby rompers and if I’m lucky, I’ll be able to squeeze in a couple Oliver and S blouses.

    it is kids clothes sewing here any day, but I do love the idea of sewing for my Little Monkey at the same time with other mums, nanas, aunties 🙂 I have two things planned, three if I have enough time 🙂 Very exciting 🙂

      So true! It’s more fun sewing along with everyone at the same time though 🙂

    I have decided to join 😉 But haven’t completely planned what I will make. I think harem pants for the baby, and skinny tees for my toddler at the very least. Is sewing chewing pads on the carrier count as children clothing? 😉

      Totally counts! I’m thinking of doing some nappies and that’s pretty much the same 😉

    Lovely! I just signed up. I’m planning on making Olver +S pajamas for my son, a christening gown for a friend (McCalls base) and a sleepsack or two.

    Thanks for this round up Abby – perfect for a new follower like me 🙂 I always think I’m going to make about 400 things during KCW but of course I’m lucky to get 2 items completed. Thanks for the inspiration, I love those skinny jeans!

    I loved what you’ve made so far. It doesn’t look handmade at all. I don’t follow your blog for that long, so it’s nice to see all the past sewing in one post. I think I will join tto but I have no clue what or who to sew for… my kid has too much already.

    I’m trying to be super organised this time (we’ll see how it goes though!). I’m hoping to make some shorts, tops & pjs.

    Wow look at all the gorgeous creations you have made. Must be nice seeing them all together like that.

    I’m looking forward to sharing a few projects this week.

Secret pyjamas! My dress for this year's @sew_melb Secret pyjamas! My dress for this year's @sew_melbourne garden party was the Charlie Caftan by @closetcorepatterns. I shortened it at the shoulders by an inch and think I shortened it at the bottom too. I altered the pockets so they attach into the waist panel, because I hate when in-seam pockets flap about and pull at the side seams. The side slits are a double turn narrow hem as the overlock and turn as suggested in the pattern looked puckered. The fabric is a Cotton + Steel rayon by Masaru Suzuki, which is a dream to sew with. I've made another dress in the red colour way.
Beans from the garden and my favourite way to eat Beans from the garden and my favourite way to eat them... Stir fry in hot oil (coconut is delish but whatever you have is fine) until a bit burnt (about 5 mins). Chuck in a few squirts of fish sauce for the last 5 secs and toss through. 
Give them a minute to cool if you can lest you burn your mouth.

A new hat! I used the free #closetcoresunhat. I've A new hat! I used the free #closetcoresunhat. I've added a hair hole, since why don't all hats have that?! Also added some garden wire to the brim.  Instead of finishing the brim edge with bias, I did the usual RST stitch, fold and top stitch. That means the brim is a little shorter than the pattern. I wanted to keep the hat lightweight, so it's unlined and has only the two layers of canvas fabric for the brim. The cotton canvas is a vintage fabric from my stash, which originally cost 15 shillings and 9 pence (I think) per yard.
