In case you've forgotten the spectacle I have been working on this week, here is my pattern and materials:
It was all simple to make, but I did make 5 pieces total: curler cap, top, "panties" (that's what the pattern calls them!), and a pair of slippers. I was absolutely incompetent at rolling my hair in curlers, so Andrew helped me. He is so wonderful, and it's so nice that he willing supports all of my insane plans. Sorry that these had to be in my bedroom, but I would not wear this in public(!) and they are supposed to be pajama!
Reading a trashy romance novel, actually one that I own and like. Anyone else read Eloisa James?
My curler cap, proudly supported by real curlers.
The back. The top has three buttons, which are hard to make out in the busy print. Being a genius, I did the curlers before I put on the top. LOL.
When T-Rex saw me with the curlers he started barking. HAhahahha. He wanted to bite my feet in the slippers as well. I will do a separate post on the slippers, which were fairly easy and fun to make.
The "panties"!
The full ensemble!
Laughing at Andrew's suggestion of some not so family friendly poses
Anyways, it was fun to make. My arms and legs are freezing, but my body and head are warm.

Love them! Although at my size, there is no way I'll be copying you!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE it! It's so cute! I especially love the photo of the slippers with the dog...hehehehehe
ReplyDeleteSo CUTE!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI had to pop over here and comment when I spotted an Eloisa James in one of the photos on Sew Retro! She's fab, and in case you don't know, a well-regarded Shakespearean scholar in her day job. But as for the point of the post, adorable ensemble!
ReplyDeleteOMG - I can't believe I used to go to bed in rollers every night and actually was able to sleep on them! I never had such a cool curler cover, though.
ReplyDeleteThanks for bringing back my olden days!
I love your pajama outfit :)
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so great! You have done a seriously good job of it, do you think you will ever wear it for real? Sam xox
ReplyDeleteAdorable as always.
ReplyDeleteHaha, this really is brilliantly hilarious! I just love that you took time out to make something fun and frivolous...must take a leaf out of your book!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute, I love it! And you did a beautiful job sewing it all, I can't wait for the slippers post!
ReplyDeleteSo cute, so much fun! It's brilliant :-D
ReplyDeleteYou are so cute!!! Those pajamas look hilariously fun.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute, I love every part of these awesome pajamas :)
ReplyDeleteBEST PAJAMAS EVER!!! (reminds me of Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday where she says she wants sleep in pajamas, only the tops!)
ReplyDeleteHilariously cute, I love it! Your wiener dog looks jealous of your wiener dog PJs! lol
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the most awesome creations I have ever seen! Love it!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness. Those are the best pajama's I've ever beheld! :D Makes me want to wear curlers...
ReplyDeleteSeriously killing me with the cuteness! I love the PJ...silly, cute, and looks really comfey, yes?
ReplyDeleteMy sister made a similar set and hated it. She thought she looked too much like a doll.
ReplyDeleteI think it is totally fun, and if you can't wear silly clothes, silly pajamas are the next best thing.
