Fall KCW 2013 has ended! As usual, this was a busy week for those who love the sew for kids! For me KCW is always a great way for sewing more than my usual 1-piece/week and get a head start on my kid’s wardrobe. For Fall KCW 2013, I managed to complete 2 smock blouses… Continue reading Fall KCW: Wrap up (and a Playtime)
It might be the last day of Fall KCW 2013, but I still have a few pieces to show here. I changed my initial (blogging) plans and instead of showing the pieces by the order they were completed, I will show you today the last one. Why? Well, because we had a weeding yesterday and… Continue reading Fall KCW: Wedding plans
I don’t know if the same happens to you, but when I love an outfit I tend to replicate it in as many colorways as possible … Instead of growing tired of sewing the same pieces, I love to sew them over and over again in different fabrics and prints. After sewing the Agnes blouse… Continue reading Fall KCW: It’s a magical forest
It’s been quite a while since my last post š¦ As usual, it was not intentional especially because KCW fall 2013 is already on, but for the last couple of weeks work assignments took the best of my time (and energy, to be honest). However, I planned ahead and “got myself a KCW” one week… Continue reading Fall KCW – Kids Clothes Week is here!!
I’m a bit late posting KCW Day 6 project, but I do have a good justification (kind of) …. Yesterday, my little boy asked if he could have a new pair of “mummy-made shorts” (the old ones were getting too tight at the waist), and although he has enough shorts in his closet, none is… Continue reading KCW day 6 (and a pattern preview)
I was so excited to be a pattern tester for The Cottage Mama. I got to test two of her new patterns: The Matilda Dress/Top and the Skip and Play Capri Pants and just loved the experience. The whole process was amazing (I learned so much from Lindsay and so many amazing women in the… Continue reading Cottage mama patterns tour
Posting and blogging (and following other’s people creations) during the KCW is always the most difficult part of the challenge for me (that and trying to get pictures to combine sunlight and a willing model, lol). Time simply isn’t enough. And trust me, I’ve been eyeing some lovely creations (on blogs and Flickr) and lots… Continue reading KCW Summer 2013 – Day 3 and Day 4 (and an Oliver + S Flip tunic version)
It’s KCW Day 2 and I’m still here! For day 2, I finally managed to complete a flipped version of Oliver+S Roller Skate dress for this month Ā Flip this Pattern Sew-along (if you miss it, go check it, because the inspiration is amazing). I started this version a couple of weeks ago but up until… Continue reading KCW Summer 2013 – Day 2 (and a flipped Roller Skate dress)
The Kids Clothes Week Summer 2013 starts today and obviously I didn’t want to miss the fun … This time around, I planned ahead (kind of … anyway, as some pictures still need to be taken and there’s a couple of projects in the pipeline. However, most of the sewing is already done) and I… Continue reading KCW Summer – Day 1
After successfully completed two projectsĀ during the first days of the KCW Spring 2013, I knew I could try to be a bit moreĀ adventurousĀ (yeah). So, at the end of day 2, I took some time to cut 5 pieces that I knew would be a lovely addition to my little girl’s wardrobe – I didn’t have… Continue reading KCW Spring 2013 ā Days 3, 6 and 7
