And Some Instant Gratification, Too.
Yesterday, I bought more flannel back satin to make the matching pajama bottoms to the pajama set that I made a while ago. The pattern is Burda 11/09, #131 and is part of the collection from which I made the first three pieces.
These are your basic elastic waist pajama bottoms. Not exciting, and I even made them easier by eliminating the drawstring/elastic combination and just made an elastic waist. Did I mention that they were quick? I turned on the serger and regular machine at 8:00p and by 9:00p the bottoms were done. They were nice and warm last night, too.It is nice every once in a while, especially during this busy season, to be able to make a project from start to finish in an evening, wear it and enjoy it!
Parting Shot: Gifts. My daughter is making these leather key chain/backpack tags for her friends and one for herself. She saw all these leather samples being sold at Martin's House of Cloth for really cheap, so we bought some to make Christmas gifts. She decided on monograms and little flowers in glue-on rhinestones. Quick and easy!

I spent 4 hours on the net looking for flannel-backed satin. Please, I beg you, provide your source.
Those pajamas look so comfy.
What great gift ideas.
Thank you for your encouraging comments on Emily's blog. She enjoying the feedback. The sewing blogging community is so supportive, which is such a boost, especially for a new little sewer. She's having a lot of fun.
Hope you have a very Merry Christmas.
What cute gifts your DD is making! Her friends will love these. Your jammies look fabulous! Love the color and they look so comfy too.
Happy Holiday!

I am just getting caught back up with your blog after being away. You have made so many wonderful things! I am looking forward to seeing you wear your lovely plaid suit.
Love the color of your PJ's.
I've had this type of PJ's on my list forever, I'm using kasha lining. (I believe it is the same as your flannel back satin). The weather is perfect for this type of PJ right now :)
