Embroidery detail |
Every year I make or embroider jammies for the grandkids. This year I opted to sew them pajamas. I had bought Christmas flannel last year at JoAnn Fabrics. For the youngest I used Kwik Sew Sewing for Babies book. I made a pair of flannel pants and a long sleeve t-shirt that I embroidered. The design is from Designs by JuJu.

My goal is that these are from St Nick on the feast of Saint Nicholas on December 6. I make sure their parents have them in time to give them on that day.

When I was cutting everything out, I found I was short on fabric so I opted to make the only granddaughter's pajamas out of a different fabric. I used various pajama patterns that I had in my stash.

It was fun playing around with the fabrics to make somewhat matching pajamas for them all. I did have to do a bit of piecing to get the oldest one's top, adding a center back seam.
For Miss M |
I did have to buy some buttons for the boys' pajamas as I didn't have enough of the right sized ones in my stash.
For Cltn |
On the pockets of the boys' pajamas I made sure to center one of the moose. In the youngest one's embroidery, I used pieces of fabric from the other ones' pajamas to tie them all together.

I don't know how much they still believe in Santa, but I did hear the middle grandchild told his mom that the pajamas smelled like grandma and grandpa Breen's house :-)
