MeMade: Nocturne Set in Fun Plaid

Sunday, February 11, 2024

Yes, a continuation of the previous Nocturne pattern kick. Holiday gift version! Meaning, I guesstimated the sizing, don't have photos on a body, and in some cases may not have photos at all!

A bubble gauze Nocturne Top! One of my favorite daytime pajamas that can also definitely work as actual pajamas. Bubble gauze from JoAnn Fabrics. Size 12 and likely an inch added to the length of body and sleeve (should size down next time, forgot to on this one!). All raw edges enclosed via the burrito method and French seams...makes it tricky to determine which way is the right side out!

Pants are size 12 made in flannel from JoAnn Fabrics with bubble gauze for the pockets and drawstring. 1-2 inches added to calf length,an then a hem that's likely much wider than the previous pair (needed it shorter than the previous pair as this recipient is a pinch shorter than the first one!). Added buttonholes to the front waistline to have a drawstring. Seams [mostly] finished as French seams, especially since this fabric really liked to fray.

By some unexpected surprise I had enough leftover fabric from the pants to make this top! Flannel is from JoAnn Fabrics. Top is a size 10 with an inch of gathers removed from the front/back (remembered to use the sized down version this time!), and likely an inch added to the length. Sleeve is a custom-length, too. Whatever could fit on the fabric I had remaining. All raw edges enclosed via the burrito method and French seams.
