Tutorial: How to sew kids pajama pants

Pajama pants are always a fun Christmas present for kids – especially when you give them on Christmas Eve so the lucky recipient can wear them Christmas morning. Melissa from Blank Slate Patterns and Melly Sews shows how you can sew a pair of kids’ pajama pants. Her tutorial includes how to draft a pattern using your child’s measurements, but if you’d like to skip that step (or perhaps you’re making them as a gift and know the child’s clothing size but not their measurements), she has a link to her shop where you can purchase a pattern.
