Mademoiselle Marionette’s Comfy Christmas 2019 Part 4

With the Pyjama Top finished I can now move onto the Bottoms.

Waistband

As always the problem with clothes for Mademoiselle is that they have to be able to put on without disrupting the String movement.

Since Pyjama Bottoms are often Elasticated I decided to use that as a basis. I Hemmed some material. I then added an Open Ended Hem and threaded through some Elastic creating a Waistband.

Waistband and Leg

I took a piece of material and wrapped around my thumb to give me an approximate size of the Marionettes Leg and then Hemmed it. I repeated this so I had two Leg pieces.

Legs with Press Studs

I then added a Press Stud on each end of the Material roughly in the middle of the Width edge. The tricky bit was now to add them in the right place on the Waistband Bottom.

I Pressed the Studs together on the Legs. I made sure that the Studs would open up on the outside of the Marionette’s Thigh when Sewn. I then flattened the Waistband and Pinned the Legs in place. I wanted to double check the position.

Complete Pyjama Set

Once satisfied I Sewed ONE SIDE of the Pyjama Legs onto the Back of the Waistband Bottoms. I repeated this with the other one and there we have it a Comfy Pyjama Set.
