Kids Clothes Week Sewalong June 2015 Traveling!

Kids Clothes Week Sewalong June 2015 Traveling!


kids clothes week

I dont know how they do it, but the organisers of the Kids Clothes Week challenge have come up with ANOTHER awesome and inspiring theme for this summer. Although following the theme of KCW is entirely optional (the only stipulation is to sew for at least one hour per day for a week), Traveling can be taken in soooo many directions that itd be hard to not come up with a project plan that could be even vaguely linked to it.

This seasons challenge starts really soon: like, TOMORROW! And as ever they have had some really great blog posts packed with interesting suggestions of how to interpret the theme, if you wish to. There are some lovely ideas linked to transportation, holidaying at the seaside and different parts of the world.  Personally, Im really into the idea of road trips, which could be a fun direction to take the traveling theme. That said, Im pretty sure of what Im going to make now and the two ideas Im currently rolling with dont really link to that.

One of the things I love about KCW, particularly when the theme is as open to interpretation as this one, is that it can be a kick up the bum to simply push forward with some ideas that have been brewing away anyhow. So that is what I am going to do. However, I have included a few other potential points of inspiration for the Traveling theme that have been lurking on my Pinterest boards.

So, what about you? Are you going to take part this season? If you are, or even if you arent, what direction will/would you take this particular theme?
