Cool Summer Breezes Pajama Pants


I've been meaning to share these for quite some time. I had made matching pairs for myself and my daughter last fall and I'm telling you - they are the most comfortable things in the world! These sweet pajama pants are made from vintage sheets - so they've been washed a million times and are just so soft and cool for the summer.
I used coordinating fabrics for the waistband and for the pair at the top - a few appliques as well.
Of course, I added some vintage lace, crochet work to the bottom.
These pants are so much fun to make. They are great for using up those old sheets from your aunt or your grandmother that I know you've got stashed in your closet. You can find a multitude a patterns out there to try - or even consider making your own from a pair of pants in your drawer.
These 3 pair of pants are available in my Etsy shop.

Now why didn't I think of this before I used all those thrifted sheets for throws when we were painting????

I know! I rescued one darling pink floral sheet from my Dad's drop clothe pile about a year ago. I love looking at things in a new way!
