Kids Blanks by Zoey: Craft-worthy Clothing!

This year’s goal is to be more crafty, more homemade… I want my kids to remember me MAKING things for them rather than BUYING stuff all the time.

I’ve always loved appliqued clothing, because you can personalize an outfit or item. This month I’ve been playing around with KidsBlanks clothing items, which are perfect for applique and other clothing crafts!

I was sent a selection of their baby items (perfect for the little one coming!) – beanie hats, bibs, a baby gown, onesie and t-shirt. I loved the assortment of colors I received! Also, I found the quality of these cotton items was great, all the seams were nicely turned and finished. They did shrink up in the wash due to being 100% cotton, but held their shapes well.

The first project I did was a bib for my son’s 2nd birthday party. It’s going to be a train theme, so I designed a train on the computer, cut out applique pieces, and ironed/sewed them on. I sometimes have trouble with applique stitching, but I was impressed with the material of the KidsBlanks bib – it didn’t bunch, stretch or move while I sewed, which made this project come together easily!

I haven’t finished my other projects with my KidsBlanks items yet – planning and prep take me FOREVER! I am thinking about creating a button design on the hats, a pumpkin design on the brown onesie, and something girly on the green t-shirt…just in case I have a girl! 🙂 The gown… wide open for ideas! Please share yours with me!

KidsBlanks by Zoey is a wholesale baby and toddler clothing company, selling “blank” baby clothes (some with animal prints and polka dots). These are great for embroidery, applique, heat transfer, and other fabric crafts! Mostly they  carry preemie, newborn, infant and toddler items but also have some men’s and women’s t-shirts as well as maternity blanks.

Some fun KidsBlanks by Zoey items include dance tutus, legwarmers, bibs, beanie hats, blankets, pajamas and just about every kind of baby clothing! I noticed there were many girlie items available!
