But in your case, you thrilled a Star Wars lover to pieces, and he will always remember these pj's fondly. And what a score with the O & S pattern!! Did you get that little heart quickening when you realized what it was? I get that when I find good thrift store scores:) And your gift is so adorable - bag and all! That is one lucky friend of P's!

There's nothing to these pyjamas that's more tricky than sewing binding over a prestitched seam.

Maybe fabric shopping won't be so boring for the kids next time....<br />These PJ's are fantastic and you did a great job. <br /><br />I thought that the front ties and neck edge could be a little awkward to do. Did you find that was the case? I was thinking I might cut the sleeves and legs down on this pattern to make shortie PJ's for the summer and hoped it would be a relatively quick sew.J Wohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14431443344285004568noreply@blogger.com
