November-December 2018: It's raining pajamas!

I think it was in mid or late October that I decided to make flannel pajamas for all my kids and older grandchildren. I spent hundreds of dollars on fabric and even more hours ironing, cutting out patterns, and sewing each pair of pajama sets! Some turned out perfect while others were too long in the arms and legs, and some were too tight! Jessica and Jacob now have pajamas with extra fabric sewn in the crotches and underarms of their p.j.'s. Jessica's set fit like a pair of karate gi's!

I also made two more stockings to add to our family Christmas stocking collection, since we had two new babies since the last stockings I made (see bottom of post). I was a sewing maniac this holiday season.

This was the pattern I used for the babydoll pajamas (picture on far right) I made for my daughters
