Our Pyjama Party is coming soon, and here are a few patterns to inspire you. Look close enough and you might spot a couple of discount codes….
I asked on Instagram a few weeks ago, and here is a collection of patterns, including; Free patterns, classic pyjamas, robes and “secret pyjamas”!

7 Pomegranate Children’s pyjamas by Poppy and Jazz (Sew Over It)
Very cute set which @Sew_Got_This is going to be making for her children soon. The pattern covers age 18months to 6years. If you want matching adults, the collar-style pattern would match nicely to Carolyn Pjs or Picadilly Pjs.

9 Quilted Slippers by Sew DIY

10 Piccadilly Pyjamas by Nina Lee
Want to feel nice and fancy? My sewing bestie loves this sew for exactly that reason! Super cute if you wanted to tackle the binding which gives it that fancy feel.
11 Loungewear Set 9210 by Simplicity
This pattern was mentioned on a recent session and can up your snuggle-factor massively! A bit of a bargin when the pattern comes with loungewear tops, dress, shorts, trousers and slippers!
12 Jaimie (women’s) and 13 Joe (men’s) Pjs by Tilly and the Buttons
The Jaimie Pyjama’s are my go-to pattern and come in men’s and women’s versions AND as a bundle. Don’t forget to add the TATB pockets (or other favourite pocket pattern) for your midnight snacks.

14 Juno Pyjamas by Tilly and the Buttons
A second They also have the Juno pattern in the Make It Simple book, recommended by host Mandy.
Secret Pyjamas
I asked for favourite secret pyjama patterns. These are garments which look casual enough to pop to the shops or confidently open the front door, but secretly, snug enough to nap or lounge around the house. And there were a lot of suggestions, including many jumpsuits. I think the 2020 pandemic and more people working from home saw many patterns coming into their own!
In no particular order…
1 Safiya Trousers, Jumpsuit and Playsuit by Tilly and the Button
Wide-legged with elastic waistband ideal for lightweight fabrics. Easy to dress up, or down. Whilst the trousers were the suggested pattern, no reason the jumpsuit and playsuit can also provide the comfort you need on a lazy day at home.
2 Avenir Jumpsuit by Friday Pattern co
The first of many jumpsuits, and definitely a popular pattern in the VSR sessions.
3 Spring in London slouch top by Seasons of East
A new-to-me pattern which can easily be dressed up or down.
4 Loungewear Set by Peppermint Magazine
Ideal sofa to bed set, with pockets included.
5 Kielo Wrap Dress & Jumpsuit by Named Patterns
One of our more formal patterns, but many sewists find comfortable to wear around the house.
6 Sirocco Jumpsuit Deer and Doe, now owned by Closet Core
Another smart-looking pattern with sleeves and v-neck. Being a knit pattern means it is a super comfortable make whilst looking smart for your next video call.
7 Saguaro set by Friday Pattern co
Another elasticated waist pattern with wide legs, the top has a very casual feel, with a v-neck for a smarter look.
8 Bob Pants by Style Arc
Elasticated waist - tick. Pockets - tick!
9 Sonata Set by Yoannas studio
Newly released pattern, hostess Dee models the floaty dress/top which comes with patch pockets AND shorts pattern.
10 Free Range slacks by Sewhouse7
One of the most popular trouser patterns in the sewing world, and with elasticated waist, pockets and tapered leg, perfect for a casual and comfortable trouser.
11 Nova Jumpsuit by True Bias
Knit jumpsuit with pockets, yes please! A more casual look to Sirocco, but easy to dress up. This sleeveless pattern is ideal for warmer environments.
12 Zadie Jumpsuit by Paper Theory
Another popular pattern in the sewing world, and apparently* one of the comfiest patterns too! Woven and wide-legged pattern which rivals the popularity of the knit Sirocco (IMO).
*Not made it myself…yet.
13 Chanterelle Pants by Sew Liberated
A very popular pattern, and guess why - elasticated waist, wide legs and pockets!
13 Shoreline shirt by Pattern Emporium
New-to-me pattern which perfectly ticks the boxes for a secret pj top. Shirt for looking smart enough but oversized/baggy for the comfort. Perfect (to me!)
14 Marigold Trousers by Tilly and the Buttons
Another Tilly pattern - elasticated waist with pleats and pockets and a peg leg, ideal for dressing up or down and thats just the trouser version.
