Xmas Pj’s

Tutorials

The towering trees have started to appear in shopping malls here in Hong Kong, the decorations are sparkling and the Christmas tunes are doing their job to turn our minds to Christmas shopping!

If you are more into the idea of giving hand made gifts this year, pyjama’s are a great idea. I have added a Xmas tree applique template to the Primrose Pj pattern, especially for the festive season. Made up in a Christmas print, it’s an easy, unique and super cute gift idea.

The Primrose Pj pattern is featured in the amazing One Thimble digital sewing magazine, (affiliate link) in their Xmas gift guide. The magazine has released today and is jam packed with 258 pages of inspiration and gorgeous patterns. Included is a coupon code for 25% discount on the Primrose Pj pattern until December 25th.

Happy Xmas sewing!
