This really seems to be a recurring theme for me, but whenever Lladybird sews something and posts it on her blog, I decide I have to have one too! This time, it’s Closet Case Files’ Carolyn pajama pattern. She made hers in linen, which I honestly had not even thought of making pajamas in, but I took her word that it would be comfy and wonderful.

I made mine with a sky blue linen and purple piping and buttons. Unfortunately, halfway through my project I found I needed more piping, and I went to JoAnn’s. They were totally out of the color I needed….and continued to be out for several weeks. I had to put my beloved pajamas on hold for that time! When they got more piping in, I was so excited I bought two packages (only ended up needing one to finish the project, though) and finished the pajama set over the next two days.

The shorts are really cool because they have pockets! Granted, I have no idea what I’m going to put in the pockets of a pair of pajamas, but it’s still a nice touch. The top has a nice curved hem, which I find flattering on a shirt.

I already kind of want to make myself another set – maybe a nice flannel winter pajama? We’ll see…
