I have been planning to make Niblet a new pair of pyjama bottoms for a while, but just haven’t had the time.

My copy of ‘Sewing for Boys’ by the lovely Patterns by Figgy’s has arrived. I have looked at all the gorgeous pictures, marvelled at the 8 sheets of full size pattern pieces and struggled to decide what I will make first!!

Niblet got a fab pair of hatley pjs from grandpops earlier in the year. They look great, fit well & wash brilliantly. So now he’s nearly grown out of them I thought I’d get some more. There are loads of fab designs, we are particularly loving the moose ones.
