Sewing Summer Olympics

Project Run and Play is part of the international sewing community. We work with designers from all over the world and had several seasons dedicated to specific geographic regions. An Olympic year seemed to be the perfect opportunity to celebrate diverse sewists from all over the world so we bring to you…

This event is just a friendly showcase of international talents rather than a competition. We have asked a wide range of past competitors to create looks for their kids inspired by the summer Olympic games. Be sure to follow along on social media all month long as we share sporty looks sure to inspire!


We also have a new Summer Olympics inspired fabric collection available in Raspberry Creek Fabrics Designer Studios! It features polka dots made of sports balls, stripes made of swimming pool or track lanes, gymnastics silhouettes, and a combined non-directional print. Of course, our popular size tags are an option but we have also added a panel of accent stripes including one row of tags, side tags, waistbands, and more!


If you want to take things a bit further, there is also a new set of digital designs available!


The Planetary Pants are perfect for creating a warm-up set! Get this pattern for just $5 this month (no code needed!) The sale ends July 31 at 11:59pm EST.
