Josephine Sews

I live in pajama's.  I get home strip off those other binding/confining garments and change into my comfy pj's.  I used McCall's 6659 to make pj's for someone else and really loved the pattern so I decided to make some for myself.

How I Did It I am happy to say everything came from my stash - ya.  I was determined not to buy anything for this project.  Except for Sunday all work was done starting in the evening after I got off work. Day 1 (Sunday) I got the pictures that afternoon but did not have time to do much. I prepared my fabric for prin
