One Piece Pajama Pants Pattern Looking for a pattern

I have Simplicity 9871, which I use all the time - it's sizes start at a 31 inch hip and go up to 49 inches. And, I have Butterick 5565, which has kids' sizes 2-3-4-5 in one envelope and 6-7-8 in another. I need sizes 10-12-14, or one that's just smaller than the 9871 XS or just larger than the 5565 size 8. After one disaster trying to upsize a pj pant from a smaller pattern (and ending up with enough width to go around the person but a crotch depth that made the pants extremely low rise), I'm nervous about trying to upscale or downscale one of the existing patterns. The one-piece pants are great because they make up so fast - particularly with a serger. It just takes a little getting used to the cutting layout - the large pattern piece needs the whole width so you have to cut your fabric crosswise and turn it before cutting out the pattern piece.

I use KS 3016 in the smaller sizes and it makes up very fast and has several options. Oh, it's for knits, though. That may not help you. -- Edited on 11/17/06 3:45 PM -- ------ Paula sewpaula.blogspot.com If I were a sewing machine, all I would have to do is lift up my foot and all my tension would be gone.

Align the side seams and you are good to go with a one piece pant. ------ 2012 : starting stash 386, net additions 206, used 164, ending stash 428
