A Color Coordinated Christmas

This is the first crafty thing I have done in a LOOOONG time.... it felt good to be back behind the sewing machine. So good, in fact, that I may just have to find more things to make... ;)

I owe a big thanks to my mom for the serger that she gave me (I love it!!!!) and to my husband and mother-in-law for watching Charlie for me after I stayed up all night sewing and made my self physically sick. You are the best.

Here is the end product:

The inspiration for the pajama pants came from the fact that J and I planned to stay at his dad's house on Christmas Eve night along with J's little sister, but his older brother needed some extra convincing to stay the night. I was able to get him to agree to sleep over if everyone had matching PJ's, and because I wanted it to be a special night, I knew what I had to do. A trip to the fabric store and a few days locked in my apartment later, I had 8 coordinating pairs of pajama pants for the family to wear on Christmas Eve.

We had a merry Christmas, indeed, and it was fun to be a little cheesy with the matchy-matchy pj's. What fun things did you make for Christmas?
