Sew Your Own Jaimie PJ Bottoms with Lucy

Fancy giving dressmaking a go? Then how about starting off with sewing up your very own pair of PJ bottoms?

With the option of an elasticated waistband or drawstring waistband, there are no fiddly fastenings or zips!

You can make the PJ bottoms either as a long full length bottoms (perfect for winter PJ's or lounge pant!) or as shorts. 

During this ONLINE workshop Lucy will walk you through each of the stages of sewing up your Jaimie's through individual models. Plus there are BONUS modules showing how you can modify the pattern further to give EVEN more variations, including adding pockets!

Once you've signed up, we will send you a paper copy of the Jaimie pattern to you (so no faffing having to print it at home!) OR if you already have the Jaimie pattern in your stash and don't need a paper copy, then simply select the "Workshop Only" option when adding to your cart. 

The Jaimie PJ bottoms can be made from UK size 4 - 24.

You do need to have some sewing machine experience for this course, but not necessarily dressmaking experience. 

If you don't have any sewing machine experience, we recommend that you attend our Beginners Sewing Weekend Workshop first. Head over to our in-person workshop list to find up to date dates for these workshops!

    • Already have the pattern in your stash? Then you can purchase this workshop with the option to not receive a copy of the paper pattern.
