Free pattern: Best Friends Summer Pajamas for little kids

May 21, 2013 by Anne Weaver

GirlfriendsShauna from Shwin & Shwin shares a free pattern for the pajamas that she made for her  daughter.  She made them from the Girl Friends fabric by Anne Kelle.  The little girls are a cute print on the jammies, but she went one step further and fussy cut sof them, turning them into matching softies as itty bitty friends for her daughter to play with as she drifts off to sleep.  The pattern is one that she has shared before, though for this go-round she shortened the sleeves and legs, added piping to the sleeves, changed up the collar, and added a faux placket to the pants.  The pattern is a size 4T.  Go to her blog for the free pattern and tutorial.

    Wow, those are very cute pajamas! I am pretty sure kids would definitely love this, and most specially if the print is their favorite cartoon character. I also like the idea that she shorten the sleeves and adding piping on. It makes it look more beautiful.

    This is interesting!! I will check on her blog to get on the pattern. I am so excited to try making my own pajama. Thanks for sharing this.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
