...like I said I just don't seem to sew well for anyone but myself! *LOL* The good thing is that I have plenty of flannel left and my niece will start sewing lessons soon so I will teach her how to make a nightgown for herself!
Since my sisters and brothers have mates and two of my children also are similarly paired off...we have our Christmas festivities on Christmas Eve so that they can visit the other side of their families on Christmas Day. A few pictures of our Christmas Eve celebration...

My sister has a Christmas Day Brunch so I was home shortly before 3pm which actually worked for me since I work the days after Christmas and am off the first week of January...my winter sewcation this year.
It was nice to have an afternoon to rest before heading back to work! To all of you that aren't working this week, enjoy! I will of course be back with more sewing adventures and a year end wrap up later this week.
...as always more later!
Great job on all the pajamas. Looks like a wonderful Christmas celebration, surrounded by those you love. I too, am heading to work but only today for this week.
ReplyDeleteI made 7 nightgowns, 6 pj pants and 4 doll dresses for our Christmas pj's. I cut out and made them all in 3 days. Crazy sewing days. ha ha
