Pattern Description: Sleepwear

Pattern Sizing: Unisex

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? yes

Were the instructions easy to follow? I got confused when it came to doing the front fly. The illustrations/instructions were lacking. I need lots of clear pictures.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? The unisex sizing caused the top to be REALLY long. The waist sits up really high as well. After alterations they fit just fine and are super comfy.

Fabric Used: cotton flannel

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: Shortened length of top and need to shorten the waist.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Not sure I will sew again. May try another pajama pattern specific to women's sizing.

Conclusion: These pajamas are super comfy. I see me getting a lot of wear out of them. Check out more pics and details on my blog here.

Buy this pattern for $9.71  List Price: $12.95   Add to Bag Add to Bag
