There was no post yesterday, because Mr. Scrimp and I leapt out of bed late, threw some clothes on, and drove 3 1/2 hours up to Buffalo to celebrate early Christmas with his extended family. We also drove 3 1/2 hours back and didn't get home until around 1 in the morning when all was said and done.
So, I didn't have a chance to be on the computer really at all.
I will have some links and things tonight for you all to peruse, but in the meantime, I have a question. Have you ever sewed pajama pants or shorts? I have, but only from a pattern, and I was thinking that it would be silly to go spend money on a pattern if it's fairly easy to, say, make a pattern from an existing pair.
What do you think, Internet-land? Help me out here.
I'm working today and tomorrow and then Christmas vacation commences! I will finally have time to thoroughly clean my house and finish wrapping presents, and blog to my heart's content.
There is a pajama pants tutorial on craftster http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=327129.0 I haven't tried it yet but it looks pretty easy.
ReplyDeleteI'd say you won't need a pattern. Maybe try googling a tutorial about basic pants. There might even be something useful on the weekend designer blog.
ReplyDeleteMay your holidays be merry!
Turn the existing ones inside out with one leg inside the other. This should give you something to draw around. Don't forget to add your seam allowances and hems,etc.
