i want to make the girls new pajamas for christmas. i found a really cute red knit with white snowflakes on it to make them with. but first i have to get a pattern that fits.<\/p>\n

noni volunteered to be my model for the little girls on the condition that i make her a pair of pink ones, since that is her “favoritist” color.<\/p>\n

i made the first trial from a lovely soft blue cotton velour. unfortunately it was just to bulky for the wee ones.
\n\"first<\/a>
\nnoni said they were way too hot, and not PINK!<\/p>\n

next i tried a lightweight knit. the fabric is from a jersey sheet i got cheap to use as test fabric. the pattern is printed crooked so it really doesn’t work for anything else. i realized after i sewed them up that i did the bottoms on the “wrong” side and the top on the “right”. oh well they are just to test for fit anyway.
\n\"better\"<\/a>
\ni think the legs need to be a smidge longer. when i made them snugger in the crotch it cut a bit too much off the leg length.<\/p>\n

noni says they are much more comfortable but still NOT PINK!<\/p>\n

then she noticed the elastic hanging down the back.
