Today, we had a plan. Samantha is a novice sewer, and really wanted to advance from basic bags and curtains, and tackle something from a pattern, but she wasn't quite comfortable doing it on her own. She mentioned that she'd love to make pajama pants for her kids and husband, and I agreed that they'd be the perfect pattern to learn on.
Our day began with lunch (in exchange for the Pumpkin tarts I baked her)
When we got back, it was time to get to work
And, in no time (even with the drama of three kids and their after-school mayhem), there was a finished pair of pajama pants.
She's on her own for the next pair, but she'll do fine. She's a natural! Now I need to haul out my machine - I'm in need of some jammies too!

Oh yes, those are perfect! Looks like she's pretty pleased with them too :)
Cute -- the jammie pants and the jammie pants model.
Oh and those pumpkin tarts????? One question. Any left for me?
Those tarts look amazing.
Very Cool!
Love the pants, and the tarts look delicious!
Thank you so much for your help (and for the tarts!!) I polished off a pair of pj pants for both the boys today too! YAY! Takes me just a little over an hour to do a pair. I used size 8 for Owen and just made it a little bit wider and a little bit longer. PERFECT. Just like we thought . :)
