Some Kids’ Clothes Week Sewing

It’s Kids’ Clothes Week, y’all! You knew that, right? Well if you didn’t, let me inform you. This is a week that comes around every season where you dedicate one hour a day to sewing clothes for your kids. But when I do Kids’ Clothes Week, I go all out. So I spent a marathon day yesterday pretty much sewing ALL. THE. THINGS while the kids were in preschool/daycare. I needed a day off sewing day! And that, I got!

All the fabrics in my first look were purchased at Joann Fabrics. Have you been lately? They just got a bunch of new stuff in (NEON STRETCH TWILL. Let me say that one more time. NEON STRETCH TWILL.), and I am dying. NEON STRETCH TWILL??!! Okay, yes, NEON STRETCH TWILL. I think I have to type that in all caps. They have neon other things, too, but I’ll save that for another day.

The top, the Figgy’s Celestial Tee, was made in the 18M size from some lovely four-way-stretch knit. I lowered the bottom hem about 3/4″ just to give her little toddler belly a little more coverage. Perfection.

The pants are the ever-popular Hosh Pants by LouBeeClothing. These are the 12M size in width with the 2T length/rise. And did I mention NEON STRETCH TWILL? Just making sure. The shoes are current at Old Navy.

Incidentally, both patterns featured here are part of the Perfect Pattern Parcel bundle which is available right now! I’ll be talking a little more about this bundle on Monday, but trust me when I say the current one is AMAZING!! Go buy it! Support a charity and indie designers!

As for the photos in this post, I recently purchased Savage Seamless Paper in Bone (affiliate link) so I can do more indoor shoots during inclement weather. I’m also loving that it gives my blog a clean, minimalist look. I purchased a 53″x36′ roll of both this color and thunder gray. I’m sure you’ll be seeing more of these very soon!
