  2. I'd like to give this a try. Do you have to make an entire wardrobe and accessories?

    1. Hi Penny, no you don't have to make an entire wardrobe. Some people will, some won't, some will buy the clothing to swap and others will sew or knit it themselves. The fun is in the giving and seeing what sort of school kit you can make up. Just think back to when children you know started a new school year and what they needed. ;-) Hope this helps.
