...early last week I mentioned that I really need several pairs of new PJ's. I chose my patterns and my fabric and set out to make this simple project happen. In the meantime, I changed my mind about the original pattern choices - which is quite natural for me. This is what I came up with:
The Kwik Sew pattern is an oldie but goodie, but I've made it several times before from the turtleneck view. I actually hacked the upper sleeve and the neckband from an old tee shirt I never wear to add a little bit of contrast to the top and to match the gray stripe. I chose the pant because of the slim leg width and the pockets (like I need pockets in bed). I miraculously ended up with stripes that match even though I cut the fabric double.
I really need a couple more pair, but I'll try to sneak them later...
