kids clothes week.

 

Kids Clothes week starts Monday.  I am trying to to prep so that I am ready to SEW for one hour per night  on kids clothes.  Now, I am certain that it is ok if I cut fabric or trace patterns- and I am sure that there will be some of that- but I would really like to make some progress through all of this fabric that I have on hand!  So here is what I have and what I plan on doing with it.

Starting at the top…

Lisette Chambray- (1.5 yds)- puppet show shorts for each girl, maybe a playdate dress (shortened to a tunic) for Little Helper. (I saw one in the flickr group a while ago and I am copying it. :)  ) Maybe a sailboat skirt.

Kitten knit fabric from Joann’s (7/8 yd)- Hopefully I have enough for a hopscotch nightgown for Little Helper.  She picked this one out.

Tinkerbell/Peter Pan Fabric – (1.5 yds)- I was thinking matching 2+2 blouses for Little Helper and Baby E.  But I think that those colors aren’t really going to work for Baby E.  I also still need to get another fabric for the ties.

Modern Workshop print- (1 Yd)- 2+2 for Baby E, I think. Maybe a bubble dress.  Maybe something else. We will see.

Pandas- (1 yd)- picked out by Little Helper. 2+2, maybe.

Frog knit from Joann’s (1 yd)- Knit pj’s from Spring issue of Stitch magazine for Baby E.

City Weekend pink knit- (1 yd)- I need to make new hopscotch tops for both girls.  I think I used the wrong stitch on my serger and the shirts are falling apart.  So yes, perhaps I could have repaired them.  But I think that I had too many issues and I just needed to start over. So I am starting over.  I got the fabric on sale, so I feel a bit better about it.  :)  Plus, since summer is coming (I am sure that it is on its way…) I will make them short sleeve.

Any bets on how many things I will complete??
