<p>Fabric selection is hugely important when sewing for children with Jollyhers <a href="http://www.jollyhers.com/" title="fashion children clothing">fashion children clothing</a> . In addition to finding a fabric that passes the child’s litmus test (Hint: fabric in the favorite color du jour will almost always be a hit), there are other factors to consider:</p>
<p> One is washability. Kids are messy, and a garment that can’t simply be thrown in the washing machine isn’t likely to get much play.</p>
<p> Wrinkles are another factor. Linen is certainly a popular fabric for warm weather garments, but even adults have a hard time not looking like a rumpled mess at the end of the day in linen. For a child, this could be impossible.</p>
<p> If you are sewing sleepwear and are using a synthetic fabric, make sure it’s been approved for use in children’s sleepwear. If it hasn’t, it should say, “Not intended for sleepwear” on the edge of the bolt.</p>
<p> Above all, comfort is the deciding factor. Children don’t tolerate itchy or scratchy fabrics. A good way to test the itchiness of a fabric is to rub it against the inside of your wrist. Most good quality knits and cottons should pass the test with flying colors.</p>
<p>Pattern selection</p>
<p>Look for patterns that allow kids range of movement and to dress themselves. If you want the garment to potentially fit the child for a longer period of time, look for a pattern that makes use of knit fabric or one that's less fitted.<br />
Closure choices</p>
<p>Be mindful of your choice of closures, especially for babies and small children. Buttons can pose a huge choking hazard. Even if they are sewn down securely, at some point they will become loose. Snaps are a good choice for this age group, particularly snap tape, which is factory-made and extra secure.<br />
Add size tags</p>
<p>This is an especially good idea if you are hoping to pass on any handmade garments to younger siblings. It’s too easy to forget what size you made a garment in, and adding a tag takes the guesswork out of it. You can find size tags easily on Etsy, or you can make your own labels with twill tape, letter stamps and fabric ink.</p>
