The summer round of Kids Clothes Week came around a few weeks ago. I had great intentions but just couldn't make it happen. But I did work on some clothes for my boys. Here is one of the items I've finished - the Willow & Co. Mulberry Tunic.
I made the smallest size (18m) for Will. He generally wears 18m ready-to-wear clothing, but this is still a little big on him. At least he'll be able to wear it through the fall.
The fabric is some quilting cotton from my stash. I think it originally came from Walmart (you know, those rare ones that still have fabric departments). The buttons are from a thrifted mens' shirt.
The pattern was a pretty easy sew. The only part I had trouble with was the turned cuffs, and I think that was partially because I was tired. Once I realized how to flip the cuffs, everything was fine.
There's another Mulberry Tunic in the works for Sam, but who knows when that'll get finished. My sewing room is a huge mess right now - I've been sewing on folding tables for years but am finally working on getting a proper table.
