Sewing for Kids


Patty Young




Books by fabric designers are in demand, sewing with knits is on the rise, and children's clothing and accessories are the most popular projects in the category.  Combining all  three of these with her fresh, signature style, Patty Young offers up a compelling collection of children's wear for her eager audience of blog followers and fans of patters and fabric designs.

In Sewing Modkit Style, you get 20 patterns sized from toddlers (sized 2T-5T) to girls (sizes 6-10).  Patterns can be mixed and matched to create an entire wardrobe, including accessories, bottoms, tops, and dresses.  Patty's specialty of sewing with knits means that each finished piece allows children to run, stretch, and play comfortably.

In addition,  the book offers:

  • Extensive sewing and finishing techniques for knit fabrics including double knits, jersey, and lycra
  • Styling tips are are included throughout such as how to combine different fabric types within one piece for an unexpected look, or how to mix and match pieces in the book to create a unique ensamble
  • Patty's colorful and wearable designs are center stage; this collection is perfect for moms, grandmothers, gift givers, and knit fabric enthusiasts.
 These projects dress your girl with flair and style, and this book teaches you how to sew modern and stylish clothes that you will love to make and your children will love to wear even more. If you are beginning to intermediate sewer with a young girl in your life, you will love the projects in Sewing Modkit Style.
