I’m back for my final wrap-up for spring 2014 Kids Clothes Week. I made a little collage to show off my total clothing counts. Click on the collage to go to a list of all my kcw blog posts.
I really enjoyed the push to make as much of Oliver’s spring wardrobe as possible within a week. I was actually sad to not get more sewing time because I kept getting more tee and short variation ideas.
My main takeaway from this week was how much easier and quicker my serger made things. Don’t know why I waited so long to learn to use it. I even re-threaded it twice! (pats self on back). I also think it took my sewing to the next level and made my clothes look more store-bought. And lest you think I’m a sewing machine (see what I did there? š ) by Monday afternoon, my kcw adrenaline rush had worn off and I collapsed on the couch during the boys’ naptime! I have got quite a busy sewing/blogging schedule the next month though so I am glad to have gotten my energy back today and gotten back into things! I’ll be back on Friday with something fun to share.
Wonderful clothes and a very productive week (especially minus a finger tip)!
Thankfully the finger has healed pretty well so it’s not keeping me back anymore! So glad it wasn’t worse and I hope I don’t do that again!
Wow, what a great week of sewing you there! The shorts look fantastic. O must be a happy boy. Does he help/insist on fabric choices?
Thanks! He is a happy boy. He’s not too terribly picky yet about his clothes but definitely has his favorites- basically anything Star Wars or superhero will be requested to be worn continually! Brooke
