PJ's

Pattern Description: McCall's 3370 very loose fitting tunic with long sleeves and pull on pants without seams have fold back waistline casing with self fabric drawstring.



Pattern Sizing: 4-22

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes, except for the changes.

Were the instructions easy to follow? Yes

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? It was quick and easy.

Fabric Used: Ponte Knit/white ITY

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I cut the sleeves short, added ITY knit to complete the length, and added bands from the ponte knit. Instead of making the self fabric drawstring, I used elastic. This was the solution for not having enough fabric.

Would you sew it again? Yes

Would you recommend it to others?  Yes

Conclusion: My husband and I fell in love with this fabric when we saw if for sale online, but when I  got it in my hands, I couldn't stand the streaking throughout. I searched online for pajamas made of ponte knit and bingo, that was my solution. They are very comfy!

  4. Guess what? Although I had seen some made in ponte knit, these are pilling (balls all over them). I hate that because they are comfy.
