Crafting- sewing coordinating PJs

What could be more cute than coordinating Christmas PJs?!!
Of course,
I may have children that ask me why I coordinated their clothing...
including their PJs someday! :)

But if you're like me, have several kiddos,
and want them to coordinate- - -
it can be hard to find in stores,
or you may not like what you find,
or worse yet, can't afford what you find that you like. Ha!

So, I've had these cute little coordinating pajamas planned since
MAY!
I'm a little obsessed about this whole coordinating thing. :) 

I found this adorable Riley Blake fabric on Etsy,
then saw a cute snowman appliqued shirt,
and knew I was destined to create them for the kiddos
this year for their Christmas PJs. :)
Thankfully, my Mom helped me cut them all out, and sewed one pair,
to paint the snowman's face on the shirts.
If you wanted to, it would be so cute appliqued on, too!
I just chose the easy route. :)
By the way, making PJ pants are one of the easiest sewing projects.
You can find a free tutorial (here).
And here they are! Finished.
I cannot wait to see how adorable all the Christmas Eve/Day pics are.
