Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made these for my sister in law for christmas!
The pattern was cut off a pair of Peter Alexander pjs that I wore the backside out of (yes they were that comfortable and I got about 6 years of near constant wear out of them…) and as Renee and I are a similar size/shape I knew they would fit.
I had a minor dilemma in cutting out. As I had a limited amount of fabric – they sell in yards and I didn’t get a comfortable amount to work with, being a metric girl – I had to do some creative cutting, and was not thinking, didn’t flip my pattern and ended up with 2 legs of the same side. Had to order more material, so I cut 2 of the other leg and now have a pair for myself that are awaiting construction. A happy incident in the end.
I just love how these turned out, and was especially pleased with the little feminine touches I added. :) She loved them also and they fit great!
Material Notes
Gorgeous cotton print ordered online, thread, elastic, ribbon, lace from my stash.

Some time ago, I did need to buy a good house for my organization but I did not have enough money and could not purchase something. Thank God my friend proposed to try to get the personal loans at creditors. Therefore, I acted that and used to be satisfied with my commercial loan.

I know, how cute is it?!?! I remember the site where I got it from – but not the name of the designer. I got it from this site here This is an Australian site, but if they don’t post overseas, I think you can get the designer’s fabric from other sites.

They’re adorable, and I also love the sweet details. I’m nuts about that fabric! Do you know the name of the manufacturer?
