It looks terrific, and I also really like the pattern layout you showed. Makes me want to copy you! 11/30/11 9:20 PM

Elemenopeo said... Very cute - I have this pattern and intend to make a slew of pjs soon. Will have to pull it out. 11/30/11 10:26 PM
mssewcrazy said... Using two tees is just an amazing transformation! Even using smaller sizes I find lots of the patterns just have necklines and shoulder areas way too open unless I redraw them. If someone says the neck is open on a pattern I know I better not go there or plan to do a lot of redrafting so thanks for the warning. 12/1/11 8:19 AM
GwenH said... Thanks for the compliments all! And mssewcrazy, if you see this, I think the neckline would not be too open for most people, I'm just used to high necks in my sleepwear and generally prefer v-necks to scoop-necks. My picture shows quite well how it fits on me, I just need to find the timer on my camera's display before I can photograph myself in a garment. 12/1/11 9:49 AM
