I found a box of fabric in the water heater closet that I left there last year and forgot about :happy:
There was this bunny fleece I got from Faith and some left over yellow fleece so I decided to make some pjs for Vidura.

He's got a weird size/body so most rtw pjs don't fit him right.

These are my first and I have low self esteem, so please don't be too hard on me :o

I used the main pattern from the KS for toddler and modified the collar, width and rise of the pants.

Second set actually came out a lot nicer than the first, so I still have hope that eventually I'll make a nice one, hehe.

I think they look great. :) And he looks very happy with them. And he might be able to wear them next year too. If his legs go through a sudden growth spurt you could add a band of the yellow fleece to the bottom as a cuff to extend their 'wearable time'. He may not have short legs forever... you never know. :)

IME when I make something out of fleece that was not a 'for fleece' pattern it always came out a bit different fitting.

I have the flannel pants I made for him yesterday still sitting here. I haven't had the energy to do anything today.

He looks super comfy! They turned out really nice. And I agree with the Duck, fleece used for patterns that aren't for fleece always fits a little differently. (Of course I'm currently angry at fleece since I'm neck deep in fleece socks lol.) You did a fabulous job :)

i think they look great! i just bought a pattern two days ago to make my boys some pj's for christmas. i'm thinking i may just try the pants though...not sure i'm confident enough yet to try a shirt too. i've got a ton of flannel here that NEEDS to be pj's...and a gaggle of boys who NEED pjs...so...

for christmas i'm making them jammies :)

you did a really great job! fleece is such a fun fabric to sew and makes the coziest things!!

He looks so warm and cuddly, and happy happy that his mama has made him something so comfortable! and iirc, he really loves bunnies, doesn't he?! :)

He's still a bunny addict, lol, has been ever since he was 5 months old.

Thank you everybody, you made my day :o :heart:
