Pajama Party

This month Sew Mama Sew has been having a Pajama Party and I am finally finished these three pairs. Somehow they've taken me 10 days to make. Such is my life!

This is this morning. Um, yeah, they are already slept in. Carolin isn't too excited about getting her photo taken.

Deanna's quite fine with it. I bought the polar bear fabric for $2.15 per metre. Yes, that cheap! Then I bought 3 different coordinating prints for the front and back panels. I appliqued one of the polar bear motifs onto the front. I realized after that they should have been a bit higher. Too late!

This is tonight. Melissa was at school when I took the other photos. Not such a great photo either. It was getting dark. They really do love each other this much.

The whole crowd! Carolin is still not wanting to be on the photo. The pattern is my own. I started with a Butterick pattern many years ago and have changed it so much that it isn't nearly the same. It is a very basic pattern but that really works for me. They are comfortable and fit great.

  1. They turned out great Alisa! I like the idea of the different coloured bodies.
    You know, it sure doesn't look like Melissa and Deanna are almost 2 years apart. I sure hope they continue to grow up close so they can enjoy the same kind of bond that we have :)
    Love you!

  2. I've always loved making at least one pair of PJ's each winter and remember it fondly when my kids were young.
