Hello there,

Thank you for visiting On the Cutting Floor. This is the Sewing Tutorial: FREE SEWING PATTERN: THE FOXY PAJAMA

If this is your first time in our blog, remember to check our FREE SEWING PATTERNS page.

On that page you will find our collection of free sewing patterns for women, kids and men.

You can also visit our SEWING TUTORIALS and our SEWING REVIEWS.

We also have an ETSY STORE, where you will find unique and modern sewing pattern for women.

I am so pleased to present my foxy unisex pjs for kids!This pattern is not only useful as a pajama for kids, but you can also make it to be an outwear set, with the over sized hoodie.

The pants and jackets has also the advantage of the cuffed sleeves and legs: especially for a kid, it is nice to know that you can lengthen them anytime you need 🙂

The fabric:

I got this cute foxy fabric from Pink Castle Fabrics. It is a very nice flannel for pjs (and it will be very nice to get one pajama pants for myself, as well!)

Here look for PAGE SIZING AND HANDLING and choose POSTER.

This will make the pages to overlap by 0.5 cms. Press PRINT.

Wait until all the pages are printed before taking them from the printer; it will make it easier to assemble.It will print 21 pages.

When finished printing, place the pages as the layout below.

Then use tape to put them together. Now cut the pieces.This will be the layout of the pattern:

Sometimes, there are problems with the printing process and the patterns come in the wrong size (a little bit smaller).To avoid this, check the 1 inch square at the top left of the first page. It will help you to see if the patterns are the correct size.The PDF pattern comes in sizes 1 to 8 years; it is color-coded and easy to cut.The colors for each size are:

1 year: black

Yardage Calculation:

I would recommend using your patterns in order to calculate the amount of fabric you will need.
I used two yards for a size 4.
