Did you hear that Kid’s Clothes Week is right around the corner again? Meg is here to give us the scoop on what’s in store for the upcoming season. Over to you, Meg!
If you’re into sewing clothes for kids, you’ve probably already heard about Kid’s Clothes Week. KCW is a sewing challenge where you commit to making clothes for your children for an hour a day over the span of seven days. It happens four times a year—once per season—and it’s such a fun way to get creative and sew along!
This season, we’ve got an exciting theme lined up: DISGUISE. You’re free to sew whatever you like, but narrowing down your project list can be a blast, especially when you’re trying to “sew all the things!†Our awesome contributors have shared tons of ideas on how to play around with the disguise concept—from costumes your kids can wear every day to clever details that hide in plain sight, like pockets shaped like kittens or sharks.
Take a look at these inspiring examples:

Oliver + S patterns have always been fantastic for creating disguises. These patterns are straightforward enough to modify and sturdy enough to endure countless wears. Compare that to those flimsy, expensive costumes you can buy—they just don’t hold up well over time. Here are some of my favorite costume versions of Oliver + S patterns (pictured below). Some of these were even sewn during previous KCWs!

When it comes to disguises, the Cozy Winter Hood from the book *Little Things to Sew* is hard to beat. Who wouldn’t want a hat with ears? Think bat ears, bear ears, Yoda ears, or even elephant ears! The cozy winter hood pattern works for so many different disguises. Switch out the fabric for something light and flowy, lengthen the ears, and voila—a sweet springtime bunny bonnet for those in the southern hemisphere. Or grab some white sherpa and black felt for a cozy panda hat that’s perfect for winter.

With Kid’s Clothes Week happening October 19-25, there’s no better time to dive into some disguise sewing. Whether your child dreams up a superhero outfit or an animal-inspired disguise, you can create it yourself! And who knows—you might just finish in time for Halloween.
