How to Sew Pajama Pants With Pockets // Beginner Sewing Tutorial

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

Does your family do matching PJs?

[@unagohery-loose6778]

We did, this year for the first time.... but the cost!!!! Even with waiting til the last minute. Next year, hoping for matching, thanks to your video!

[@MaryPoggemann]

Your pajama pants video was by far the best I've seen. It was instructive and entertaining at the same time. Thank you so much for sharing your time and your talent with us.

[@sarahdresser2498]

You really explain everything real well ! The only one who does explain everything , the whole way through from start to finish! Thank you, cheers!

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad it was helpful. That's what I strive for! :)

[@aw1359]

Cutting the pockets as rectangles is absolutely PRICELESS!!! I have always hated the traditional pocket pattern! Thank you!

[@MaryPoggemann]

Absolutely agree. And I love the fact that it didn't matter to her that the packet Pockets didn't match perfectly. Love her let's just get through this attitude. Also loved the way she explained how to ease the fabric so they matched. I've had so many projects where I've had fabric left over at one end or the other never understanding that I needed to ease it so it matched.

[@voyager36]

We’ll you had me at Drink and Sew! I like wine myself. This is the best follow along tutorial I have found. I am recently starting to sew, have wanted to do it my whole life. My grandmother used to make all our PJ’s and she made all my dads clothes… he liked being different. As such I’ve always wanted to be both…sew and be different. Thank you SO much for posting your video. You’re a gem!!! And really fun too!

[@MelanieFinkelstein]

Oatmeal Stout!! YUMMMMMMM!! I love everything about this video

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

Thank you!! ☺️♥️ Also, this beer was SUPER yumm!

[@aprildamski8365]

Great video! You talked slow enough , and was detailed enough, so I could understand each step! Now I'm off to the fabric store! I'm very excited!! Thank you!

[@lorettapowell2129]

Struggling with pockets. Your video tutorial went into a more focused demonstration than I have seen before. And from someone who drinks through it w/o any mistakes......you’re dangerous , lol. KUDO’S !!!!!

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

I just don’t show my mistakes on camera 🤣

[@susanzurales5206]

This is a great tutorial, I think I have the confidence now to make a pair. Like the way you explain.

[@pennyfrancis4635]

This is great my family does Christmas (family) every family their own theme wears pj's

[@AnaClara-fe4wl]

Thank you for the video, was so helpful!! The attention that you put into the details makes a big difference ❤️❤️

[@alyson983]

This is the best tutorial yet! thank you!!

[@dianesanches307]

I loved your video! The only one that explained everything really well, especially for beginners like me!

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

Thank you!! I’m glad it helped. 😊

[@sarahsmithard8001]

You're talking my language! Thank you for making sewing simple to understand.

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

I’m so glad! ☺️

[@myrabyrd2969]

At the point where one leg was longer, can I just cut it off to match vs Easing the fabric?

[@AlyssaDowner]

I love Sunriver so much

[@cristinajensen3436]

So informative, every step and tells you why. And drinking beer!!! Cheers 🍻

[@kathyhoodstock6886]

I've got some pants that are one size too big. Could you do a video that shows how to take existing pants and resize to fit? Love your videos and the adult beverage varieties! You rock!

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

Ooh, I love this idea! I have a couple of pairs that don’t fit too, I’ll put that video in the line up. 😁

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

So I'm realizing that I definitely need more practice in this area before I really feel like I could teach it... but I found some great videos that I hope can be helpful to you in the meantime, since I don't know when I'll film and post a resizing pants video! Check out kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHytnmeQltZ5abc and kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKu5fHiVotOhjpI

[@SunnyKayy]

I'm so glad I found this video. I'm going to give it a try... because my husband and I are tall and we can NEVER find Christmas matching family outfits that are long enough for us!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!

[@projectcraftygirl]

This has been the most detailed and helpful video. Thank you

[@1Tibs1]

[@pennykoncz9683]

[@JillDose]

This helped me! Thank you very much.

[@TheDaroyis]

I love your videos!! You are so entertaining.

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

Thank you! ☺️

[@onjonb8142]

Nice! I would like to know how to make a car seat cover

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

The kind that covers a baby's car seat or the kind that covers the back seat of the car to protect against dogs, kids, etc.?

[@gaillouviere8471]

Excellent video!

[@tmangel760]

I'm from Oregon!! I think your hilarious and amazing

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

Yay Oregonians! 🥳

[@tamkae]

I'm from Springfield Oregon . Really nice to meet a neighbor on KZbin..

[@bcvahsfam]

I REALLY liked this video. You explain the steps very well, especially for beginners. I am going to make matching pants for my family!!!! I'm liking and subscribing. :D

[@carlacarr5452]

ERMERGERD I wish I'd have seen your video before I cut up a pair of my sister's pjs :O How freaking fun are you since I also like to sew with a beverage and was drinking a brew from my hometown Frederick MD brewery, Flying Dog while watching your video. My husband brought me a snack of crackers, cheese and salami while I was watching your video (cut up pjs in my lap) and wondered why I was laughing! LOL! Thank you so much for doing this video! I LOVE pockets and I LOVE beer ;)

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

This is my favorite comment ever, thank you!! 😂

[@UnrealKatieCopeland]

This is perfect! Haha - I want to be your friend. Way to go on knowing what content people want. I am making flannel family PJ pants even though I just learned to sew a few days ago, but there aren't pockets in the sewing pattern. Hope it turns out well!

[@deborahmayo9603]

Thank you 😊 omgoodness I thought I would never learn the concept of attaching the pockets mainly because I have mini strokes which somehow impair my up from down and vice versa(I don’t understand why) maybe it was the beer idk but I’m thankful and saying “I got it now !” 😂

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

This makes me so happy!! Yay!

[@parijyotishi9270]

Thankyou so much for detailed instructions. You really made my confidence rise to try sewing pj’s with pockets. I was wondering why my front & back don’t match😔 and your tricks are super fabulous. Thank you again

[@disneygirljamie9974]

wondering the same

[@ambroseelon9989]

This is so Oregon. -Corvallis, OR

[@sabrinarina4]

You use your rotary cutter directly onto your wooden table? Doesn’t that mark your table with cuts and scratches?

[@Ka-kz2gu]

Does her table looked scratched?

[@marthaingram4621]

Oh ! She do her fabric fold differently. You can also fan fold.

[@mariecarlson4313]

Can you put a link or description for the ruler you use please? 🙏❤️

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

Yes!! It's technically a quilting ruler but I use it for EVERYTHING, lol. Here it is: amzn.to/3tjEnxD

[@lorettapowell2129]

Threaded elastic though waistband with safety pin, but even turning the safety pin backwards and wrapping it with tape, the pin opens on me, making it difficult to pull through the whole way. Ideas???

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

That’s super frustrating! I’ve had to deal with that as well. Usually, I just try to close the pin back up inside the waistband and keep going. However, when I’ve tried to thread cord I’ve also used a straw and wrapped tape around the cord to attach it and that’s worked. I know elastic isn’t the same thing, but maybe that would work?

[@TheSomeone2009]

Enjoy your drinks! And I know it may fall on deaf ears, but as someone who regrets it at my age, I would advise you to avoid if possible as it does damage your cells through and through.

[@SparkyOne549]

Make sure you are the same fabric type as the one you traced. Or you will have serious fit issues.

[@drinkandsewthings4806]

This is a great point, thank you!

[@panioloprep8126]

I left after only 56 seconds.

[@Ka-kz2gu]

This tutorial was fantastic and her humor is adorable. It’s not heroine it’s a craft beer. The stick up your prissy @ss is what I find offensive.

[@panioloprep8126]

Skills I appreciate. Gimmicks not so much. Why not just teach without the beer?

[@lovelygirl1730]

You need to stop drinking
