Excuse my wet hair and tired face. I was at the machines for almost 12 hours and was a bit spent. Nothing fancy but new pj's for me.
Shirt: McCall's 4872
This is my first and I am very pleased with. My right arm is 1" smaller than my left right now due to some herniated discs in my neck, so if it looks like one arm of the shirt is bigger then it is. I forgot to take this into account when I sewed it up.

Pj Pants: Simplicity 7229
This is my favorite fast skirt and pants pattern. In the pic I showed my waist (stretch marks are peeking out and saying hello as well), it is a simple drawstring waist with a wide seperate waist piece. I love this style because the last thing this girl needs is more fluff from a gathered waistband adding to her bulkiness. It makes really nice skirts too.

They look really comfy! I didn't notice anything in the sleeve lengths. and what a great idea for the waistband! I might have to try something like that the next time I make PJs...

Very Cute--I love the pants fabric.
I love that skirt pattern also,I have made several of the skirts and they always turn out great. Haven't made any pants yet, but yours are so cute I think I am inspired to do so now!

So cute! I love the waist treatment on those pants. I bet it's very comfy. This is a really nice looking set of pajamas/loungewear.

And those curtains behind you are very rich-looking. Are they silk dupioni?? Inquiring minds want to know.
