Aussie Curves - Green

 

After my attempt for the Aussie Curves - Pajamas week, I realised I was in dire need for some new pajamas - actually matching ones.  I also had to get it done before my school camp - which I go on, tomorrow at 5:30 am. I did all the cutting out and actually got the bottoms done last weekend, so I finished off the top today.

 

Easy sewing - I love it.  I made the pajama bottoms based off an old pair that had worn through. The top is my trusty t-shirt patten based off a one I bought from Big W - but I extended the sleeves.

I had bought the fabric years ago.  At the time I couldn't decide whether or not a 'actually' liked it - I mean brown and green? But the hearts! And so nice and comfy. Luckily I did buy a heap of it - just enough to squeeze in pants and long sleeve top anyway.

Ignore all cat hair.

I also managed to sew a kimono sleeved top out as well. This fabric was in a second hand lot that I won off Ebay.  It's a cotton blend so it was easy to sew and doesn't need a lot of ironing.

I was worried that it might look a little like hospital scrubs, but there is a little shaping and darts. It feels nice to wear; I might shorten the sleeves even further.

 

Top: mine

Jeans: Sara 

Boots: I love Billy - dark green!

Necklace: Bubble necklace from eBay.

The original pattern is from Vogue - pattern 1247. I've done some modifications like getting rid of all the gathering - no I don't need any more fabric around my boobs and shoulders, moved the darts, and removed a lot of the fiddly pieces.
