MeMade Clothing: Dachsund Nocturne PJ Set as a Gift

Sunday, February 4, 2024

Several months after being on the previous Nocturne pattern kick, I went back to make up this simple pattern as holiday gifts. This is, as before, the Sew Liberated Nocturne Pajama Set pattern with soem sizing modifications below. 'Had to do some guessing about sizes and modifications for the recipients, but I think it turned out alright. On the bright side, pajamas don't need to be a perfect fit, so long as you oversize a pinch.

The top is made in Dachsund flannel from JoAnn Fabrics and sleeves in scrap bubble gauze also from JoAnn's, leftover from another portion of this recipient's gift. Size 10 with an inch of gathers removed from the front/back, and likely an inch added to the length of body and sleeves. All raw edges enclosed via the burrito method and French seams. Also, a little wrinkly from being packaged up in the box!

The pants are a size 12 (recipient wanted a "large") made in dachsund flannel from JoAnn Fabrics. 2 inches added to calf length, plus an inch added to the hem. Added buttonholes to the front waistline to have a drawstring. Seams [mostly] finished as French seams. I accidnetally cut two of the same leg, so had to piece together scraps in order to convert the one leg to the correct orientation. C'est la vie!
