We had such a fantastic afternoon at our local sewing shop. We each chose fabric to make our own pyjama bottoms +can’t wait to make a start!

Congratulations to these three #makedoandblog challenge prize winners who will all be enjoying some beautiful crafty prizes.

Thank you sew much @thefoldline @FabricGodmother @harleygallery @LoveSewingMag @bobbinsnbuttons for supporting our competition ✂️

Here we are with our finished pyjama bottoms that we made in crafty Venture Experts. We visited the fabric shop, chose our fabric, cut out our fabric and pinned and sewed them together. We have started to learn to sew and we are all very proud of our finished garments ✂️
