Continuing our theme of oh-so-cozy sewing projects (be sure to check out our sleep mask tutorial and throw blanket tutorial), this week’s Sew Together Tuesday video tutorial gets a bit more ambitious and is a whole lotta’ fun. Here our National Educator Teresa Coates shares her tips for sewing a super-comfy pair of pajamas — perfect for lazy days around the house as we all stay at home and self-quarantine.

The pattern featured in the video is Indygo Junction’s Slumber Party PJs Pattern, and it includes instructions for a sleep top in two lengths, sleep shorts and cropped sleep bottoms. Teresa added her own twist on it by sewing with our very own Embrace® double gauze fabrics, and we couldn’t be more excited with how these “summertime pajamas” turned out.
This week’s video is especially great as we’ve partnered with our generous partners Dritz and Indygo Junction to give away a prize pack that includes the Slumber Party PJs Pattern as well as other Dritz supplies. Click here to learn more and enter to win!
