Actually, I go inside after the garment is done and just tack down that ridge by hand. I'm glad to see you get good fit with Simplicity--they are WAY too large for my dgd. My best luck is with Kwik Sew. Your pjs look great and the fit looks good too. 11/13/04 11:21 PM

Also I have seen pj's where the zipper was sewn up and around to the back seam. It was to give more room for diaper changes, without having to take the legs out.
I love one piece pajamas for keeping them warm in winter. 11/13/04 11:44 PM
