(4-Thing-0302) Pajama Pants

Pants_001

I've been excited about this gorilla flannel print since I got it. Wednesday I turned it into a pair of pajama pants.  I'm getting pretty good at pj pants by now.  They are super fun to make, and I even get to use my automatic buttonhole feature on my machine, which is really fascinating to watch. This is from McCall's 4320 pattern.  I didnt follow the instructions for the waistband, because I like to make pj pants with elastic in the back and draw strings up front.  So I take a piece of elastic about 14 inches long, sew the draw strings to each end, and then thread it through the waistband. Then I center and stretch the elastic and sew the two ends to the pants through the waistband.  It makes it fit better in the seat (for me at least).
