I just would like to share how I usually make PJ Pants for my toddlers.
So, here we go:
You need:
1. Marker pen
2. Tailor chalk (If I don’t have one, my son’s crayons make a good substitute..;)
3. News paper
4. Pins
5. 5/8” width elastic
6. Scissors
Now we can start:
1. take out your toddler’s PJ Pants which fit him/her and fold it
2. Trace the PJ pants on to the paper and cut it off --> like this
3. Fold the fabric into half & Put the pattern on the fabric with the straight side on the fold -Ć add 1” seam allowances** For the waist side add 2” seam allowances**
4. Put right side of fabric together, pin the upper part and stitch along the side up to the crotch part
Stitch along the blue line (I hope it's visible enough..;)
5. Open and match the stitching, Open the seam
6. Stitch all along the leg inner seam.
7. Hem/stitch the leg bottom. I dont have serge machine so I double fold & stitch it.
8. Fold inside the waist and stitch it around the waist, leave +/- 2” opening to insert the elastic.
Insert in the elastic and stitch close the opening.
VOILA, your quickie PJ pants is ready..:D
with the peasant top (I made with the tute from HERE)
Another PJ Pants ~~ this one is 3/4 PJ pants
** If you don’t have serge machine just zigzag the fabric to avoid fraying or just cut it crisscross
such a brilliant idea to make the step by step posting, and provided with pictures, too, so generous of you, yaar!
