Home made uniform?

[WoolyMama]

Is this an daft idea?
I really want to make most of dd's uniform when she goes to school - I'll probably buy shirts but I'd like to knit or sew the rest.

I'm quite a confident sewer and knitter and already make a lot of dc's clothes

The school uniform isn't super strict so they'll definitely be allowed and younger dc's are both girls so stuff can be handed down.

I agree with Glaciferous. It's not a good school if it's not teaching children to accept the difference in people and parents fear that their children can be bullied because of it.

I made the gingham dresses at infants and a couple of pinafores in the style of the old fashioned gym slips for dd2 as she wanted them.
They were envied by several of the other girls.

However I was another who had a wonderful home knitted jumper and longed to be the same as the other children in the shop bought ones. I don't remember any child ever commenting, but I still felt it
