How to Sew Pajama Pants With Pockets // Beginner Sewing Tutorial
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Need matching Christmas family pajamas? This is the sewing tutorial for you! Make these pajama pants out of fleece or flannel, add pockets, and sew a pair for everyone you know. Step-by-step for beginners, this video will help you sew the perfect pair of comfortable pajamas. The waist and hem are both customizable to the size needed, and if you create a pattern you can sew these pants over and over!
*If you are making children’s pajamas, be aware that most flannel and fleece fabrics say “not intended for children’s sleepwear” as they are not flame-retardant*
//TIPS FOR SEWING
• When sewing the hem, start on the side seam to make the hem seam less noticeable
• If you can, remove the arm of your sewing machine and slip the hem and waistband around your machine to make them easier to sew
• When sewing up the straight side of the legs, match the two pockets together and ease the fabric so the pockets match (that’s why you put the pocket on the back 1/2 inch lower - mine in the video didn’t need to ease as much as I thought)
//WHAT I’M DRINKING:
Ninkasi Brewing Oatis Oatmeal Stout

Does your family do matching PJs?
We did, this year for the first time.... but the cost!!!! Even with waiting til the last minute. Next year, hoping for matching, thanks to your video!
You really explain everything real well ! The only one who does explain everything , the whole way through from start to finish! Thank you, cheers!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad it was helpful. That's what I strive for! :)
Struggling with pockets. Your video tutorial went into a more focused demonstration than I have seen before. And from someone who drinks through it w/o any mistakes......you’re dangerous , lol. KUDO’S !!!!!
I just don’t show my mistakes on camera 🤣
Cutting the pockets as rectangles is absolutely PRICELESS!!! I have always hated the traditional pocket pattern! Thank you!
Absolutely agree. And I love the fact that it didn't matter to her that the packet Pockets didn't match perfectly. Love her let's just get through this attitude. Also loved the way she explained how to ease the fabric so they matched. I've had so many projects where I've had fabric left over at one end or the other never understanding that I needed to ease it so it matched.
Your pajama pants video was by far the best I've seen. It was instructive and entertaining at the same time. Thank you so much for sharing your time and your talent with us.
We’ll you had me at Drink and Sew! I like wine myself. This is the best follow along tutorial I have found. I am recently starting to sew, have wanted to do it my whole life. My grandmother used to make all our PJ’s and she made all my dads clothes… he liked being different. As such I’ve always wanted to be both…sew and be different. Thank you SO much for posting your video. You’re a gem!!! And really fun too!
Great video! You talked slow enough , and was detailed enough, so I could understand each step! Now I'm off to the fabric store! I'm very excited!! Thank you!
I love Sunriver so much
Oatmeal Stout!! YUMMMMMMM!! I love everything about this video
Thank you!! ☺️♥️ Also, this beer was SUPER yumm!
Thank you for the video, was so helpful!! The attention that you put into the details makes a big difference ❤️❤️
I loved your video! The only one that explained everything really well, especially for beginners like me!
Thank you!! I’m glad it helped. 😊
You're talking my language! Thank you for making sewing simple to understand.
I’m so glad! ☺️
This is a great tutorial, I think I have the confidence now to make a pair. Like the way you explain.
So informative, every step and tells you why. And drinking beer!!! Cheers 🍻
I'm so glad I found this video.
I'm going to give it a try... because my husband and I are tall and we can NEVER find Christmas matching family outfits that are long enough for us!!!
Thanks so much for sharing!!
This is the best tutorial yet! thank you!!
This is great my family does Christmas (family) every family their own theme wears pj's
This has been the most detailed and helpful video. Thank you
At the point where one leg was longer, can I just cut it off to match vs Easing the fabric?
😂😂😂😂❣️ you had me at “Drink and sew”❤️❣️
I've got some pants that are one size too big. Could you do a video that shows how to take existing pants and resize to fit? Love your videos and the adult beverage varieties! You rock!
Ooh, I love this idea! I have a couple of pairs that don’t fit too, I’ll put that video in the line up. 😁
So I'm realizing that I definitely need more practice in this area before I really feel like I could teach it... but I found some great videos that I hope can be helpful to you in the meantime, since I don't know when I'll film and post a resizing pants video! Check out ruclips.net/video/JKJm4ZaqF3U/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/fzVKE_mnnX0/видео.html
Thank you for the information! This is wonderful!
This helped me! Thank you very much.
I love your videos!! You are so entertaining.
Thank you! ☺️
Great teaching technique! 👍
Thank you 😊 omgoodness I thought I would never learn the concept of attaching the pockets mainly because I have mini strokes which somehow impair my up from down and vice versa(I don’t understand why) maybe it was the beer idk but I’m thankful and saying “I got it now !” 😂
This makes me so happy!! Yay!
Thankyou so much for detailed instructions. You really made my confidence rise to try sewing pj’s with pockets. I was wondering why my front & back don’t match😔 and your tricks are super fabulous. Thank you again
wondering the same
I REALLY liked this video. You explain the steps very well, especially for beginners. I am going to make matching pants for my family!!!! I'm liking and subscribing. :D
ERMERGERD I wish I'd have seen your video before I cut up a pair of my sister's pjs :O How freaking fun are you since I also like to sew with a beverage and was drinking a brew from my hometown Frederick MD brewery, Flying Dog while watching your video. My husband brought me a snack of crackers, cheese and salami while I was watching your video (cut up pjs in my lap) and wondered why I was laughing! LOL! Thank you so much for doing this video! I LOVE pockets and I LOVE beer ;)
This is my favorite comment ever, thank you!! 😂
This is so Oregon. -Corvallis, OR
I'm from Oregon!! I think your hilarious and amazing
Yay Oregonians! 🥳
I'm from Springfield Oregon . Really nice to meet a neighbor on RUclips..
Excellent video!
Nice! I would like to know how to make a car seat cover
The kind that covers a baby's car seat or the kind that covers the back seat of the car to protect against dogs, kids, etc.?
Oh ! She do her fabric fold differently. You can also fan fold.
This is perfect! Haha - I want to be your friend. Way to go on knowing what content people want. I am making flannel family PJ pants even though I just learned to sew a few days ago, but there aren't pockets in the sewing pattern. Hope it turns out well!
Threaded elastic though waistband with safety pin, but even turning the safety pin backwards and wrapping it with tape, the pin opens on me, making it difficult to pull through the whole way. Ideas???
That’s super frustrating! I’ve had to deal with that as well. Usually, I just try to close the pin back up inside the waistband and keep going. However, when I’ve tried to thread cord I’ve also used a straw and wrapped tape around the cord to attach it and that’s worked. I know elastic isn’t the same thing, but maybe that would work?
You use your rotary cutter directly onto your wooden table? Doesn’t that mark your table with cuts and scratches?
Does her table looked scratched?
Can you put a link or description for the ruler you use please? 🙏❤️
Yes!! It's technically a quilting ruler but I use it for EVERYTHING, lol. Here it is: amzn.to/3tjEnxD
Enjoy your drinks! And I know it may fall on deaf ears, but as someone who regrets it at my age, I would advise you to avoid if possible as it does damage your cells through and through.
Make sure you are the same fabric type as the one you traced. Or you will have serious fit issues.
This is a great point, thank you!
I left after only 56 seconds.
This tutorial was fantastic and her humor is adorable. It’s not heroine it’s a craft beer. The stick up your prissy @ss is what I find offensive.
Skills I appreciate. Gimmicks not so much. Why not just teach without the beer?
You need to stop drinking
“I’m gonna take a drink to prepare myself for this part!” Hahahaha We must be related
