Pattern Review - Pajama Party PJs from Fishsticks Designs

This is the first time I've made the Pajama Party PJs, but I can guarantee it won't be the last! 
As a matter of fact, seeing as how there are 2 of this pattern that covers sizes from 12 months -14 years I'm thinking this might just be the perfect pattern for some gorgeous Christmas jammies for my crew this year!

All of the little details make this an unmistakably attractive sewing project. I loved the crisp, tailored finish! The cuffs on the arms and legs along with the pocket option allow for the perfect use of complimentary accent fabrics. 

 

I chose to use plastic KAM snaps for the closure on this pair, but the instructions provided will walk you through using metal snaps or sewing buttons and button holes. 

As with all Fishsticks Designs patterns, the instructions are very thorough, providing step-by-step photos for the entire process. A beginner seamstress willing to take his/her time and ready and follow would have no trouble at all sewing this sweet set! And I'm sure would be proud of and inspired by their finish. 

SUMMARY
Sewing Experience Level: Beginner
Size Range: 12M - 14Y
Special Techniques: Sewing Elastic Casing for waistband, adding snaps or buttons, adding sleeves.

Personal Notes: Stunning finish with this pattern! Excellent, easy-to-follow instructions. Possibly to become my favorite PJ pattern!

This looks like a great pattern for Winter PJs, Kristy. And you are right, perfect for using contrasting fabrics.
