JAMMIE TIME

Harrisen has been growing so fast!
He has out grow all of his pajamas. I really hate buying pajamas too. They are expensive, don't last long, and who really cares what they look like anyway, you wear them when you are sleeping for Pete's sake. ( Sorry that was kind of a tangent huh.)

So I spent the day today sewing more pajamas for the little guy. He got 7 new pairs, (that should be enough I hope,) and I just bought plain (clearance) tee shirts to go with them. they each have a different "theme" anything from baseball or basketball to Race cars or cowboys. His favorite are the helicopters, which he insisted on wearing first.
Although Harrisen HATES tags on his clothes, he really needs them to be able to tell witch way the pajama pants go. So, I solved the problem by using a soft white fabric and sewing it all the way down. No flaps tickling in the back of these pants. I even used a permanent marker to write the size on it, just in case we give them away for hand me downs later.
It took a good majority of the day, ( I was easily distracted from today's project for some reason)but we got it done and Harrisen is sleeping happy tonight.

I am impressed. Do you use a pattern or do you just measure and go?

I used a pattern this time but usually for the little ones I just cut and go. The last ones I made for him (about a year ago) I made the waist too short and he had low riders for a long time.
