I love having a good hour or two to sew - not only is it therapeutic, but productive as well...... (Keep reading for more details. Everyone except Marie, because this one is for you!)

These are the flannel pajama bottoms I made for my Stocking Swap partner (after I work on embellishing the shirt, you can chalk this as one set done for the Pajama Sew Along) - and if you're wondering, she is not elfen sized... they are shorts. Why shorts? One word, shrinkage! I had purchased just enough material to make McCall 3019, but after washing the material I found that it had shrunk considerably. Thankfully, my partner lives in a warm weather state so shorts seemed like a good save.

While I've made this pattern several times, this is the first time for the shorts. Frankly, I'm a bit disappointed with the way they turned out - they are really too long (IMHO). I'm hoping that she's taller than me otherwise they'll fall right below her knees.
