There were a couple of minor setbacks in finishing the Christmas pajamas. Jamie claimed that the pant legs on his pajamas were too wide and he wanted me to take them in. I asked my sewing instructor for help and she said to just cut off the side seam and re-sew. I also had to redo the waistline. When Jamie tried it on after the alterations he said it bunched up too much in the crotch area. (I guess I cut off too much at the waistline). So basically I had to reorder fabric and start over on his pajamas. (anyone interested in a pair of blue snowflake pajama pants?) Even though I got the fabric in early December I put off making the pajamas until yesterday and just finished.
Another thing that was sort of hard to find was plain white long sleeved shirts for the boys. I went to Kohl's and easily found one for me and Jamie but in the kids section no such luck. That's when I turned to trusty and reliable Amazon.
I'm very happy with my first set of family Christmas pajamas. It'll be fun to pick out new fabric each year.
