My little men have recently had a bit of a growth spurt and one of the things they are majorly lacking in is PJ's that fit and they picked some fabric they wanted for some several weeks ago, so when the tester call for this lounge set came out I really had no excuse not to make some for them! They like to match quite a lot so I decided to make them from the same fabric and colours and use slightly different versions so they matched but weren't exactly the same!

At the end of Novmber, my Husband started getting quite jealous that I was sewing myself so many nice well fitted pyjamas and asked if he could have some as well! This was a good thing in several ways as, as well as being able to have exactly what he wanted, finding him store bought ones that fit are practically impossible or extortionately priced!
The fabric choosing was the easiest, I let him loose on {some} of my {huge} fabric stash and rather predictably he chose some bright sesame street flannel and yellow jersey and told me he'd like the flannel as the arms and trousers of his PJ's. I knew the flannel would be fine for the trousers but did consider for a while how flannel would work as sleeves for a top seeing as most PJ tops are completely jersey but decided to go with it anyway and adapt if needs be.
Firstly, I have to admit to forgetting about setting up this blog in May! I did however complete the challenge set and I managed to complete 6 garments during the month including 3 tops, a skirt a summer dress and even an Evening dress with bolero! I have since made several more tops and dresses as well. I will dig out the photos and review the patterns used over the next few weeks.
Beauty Sleep PJ's
Last week I was lucky to be chosen to test the new ladies pyjama pattern from Peek-a-Boo Pattern Shop, it has a trendy slim fitted look with a mid scoop neck and cuffs on the wrists and ankles and I have become addicted to them! I want to wear them all the time!
