Hi, everyone! Thanks for all your warm wishes– Man Friend is back in good health! To celebrate that, and our 6th anniversary (tomorrow), I stitched him up a fancy new pair of PJ’s!
He’s quite the Star Wars fan, so I used a sheet set. The fabric is really weird, some kind of strange, stiff poly-cotton blend, so maybe not the nicest for pajamas, but he loves the print, so I guess that’s OK. Maybe they’ll get a little softer after washing them a few times.
Look at puggy adoring his pop!
As you can see, I made no attempt to match the print. I probably should have positioned it a bit more strategically– it looks a bit sloppy. Oh, well! I also didn’t use a pattern– I planned to trace a pair of Man Friend’s pajamas, but I couldn’t find or he doesn’t own any actual pajama pants (just track pants or sweats… so fashionable…), so I traced a pair of sweatpants. The sweats are a bit too big for him, I guess, cause these turned out a little large.
Bad news– Cap’n Crunch has defected to the Dark Side!
Man Friend requested that I not show his face to “cultivate an air of mystery” about him. Hahaha! Don’t you just want to know more about this mysterious, pajama-ed stranger??
Hope your weekends are going swimmingly! I’m looking forward to jumping back into MMM tomorrow!

Happy anniversary!

Thanks, Kerry! These were really fast to make, especially since you don’t even need a pattern. Make some for your husband!
