Kids Clothes Week Challenge - Raglan T's all Around

Did you know it's Kids Clothes Week Challenge over on Elsie Marley?  I didn't, that is until a couple of days ago.  The funny thing is I had planned to keep all my sewing this week to stuff for the kids as I have my niece all week and I didn't want to do anything to distracting, or finicky (like orders!)


The kids were super excited for new shirts.  I did a trial one of the Boy's Raglan Shirt in Sewing for Boys and it turned out alright but I wasn't a huge fan of the exposed seams so these ones I switched it up a bit.  The only problems I had were with my collar fabric, it didn't have quite enough stretch to it so it puckered up a bit, especially on the first on.

For Ara's I used the same pattern I made in this post  I still love the simple way it comes together but I think next time I'm going to bring in the sides a bit for a more fitted look.



 


I don't know what they liked more, the shirts or me taking pictures of them in the rain outside!

  1. Nice! Love the colours. I wonder how long you'll get away with making the same things for your boys? Mason is already starting to complain that he doesn't like having the same clothes as John.
