Tell me if this sounds familiar...

  • Right now, you have a sewing machine you rarely use because you have no idea where to start

  • You have no idea how to choose a pattern, or where to get started with one

  • You need the perfect project to inject your sewing with some confidence

  • You just want someone to guide you through a project, beginning to end

  • OR--You have some sewing experience, but you want to be able to add pockets to your projects

Ready to get started?

Don't try to sort through all of the pattern directions; let me take you through the entire project, beginning to end, so that you can jumpstart your sewing journey!

We will be sewing pajamas from Butterick pattern #6428, view C and F, and adding a side pocket to the pajama bottoms.

That's why you need my PJ Sew Along

I have worked with so many women in your same place, and helped them jumpstart their sewing journey, and I can do the same for you!

Meet your instructor!

Who am I?  I’m Jenni Miller.  I’ve been sewing since I was little, and eventually got my university degree in Clothing and Textiles.

I love to sew!  It’s relaxing, fulfilling, and gives me a creative outlet that I can use for myself, as well as helping other people.  I want everyone to feel that same fulfillment!

I polled my Sewing Circle on what they really wanted to learn, and the results came back overwhelmingly that they wanted to learn to make pajamas, and they wanted to learn to add pockets.

Not one to disappoint, I have done both in one tutorial!

    Nope, not at all. That's why I created this sew along; to jumpstart your sewing journey, and get you started!

    Absolutely not! All sewing machines have the same basic functions, and and will do what you need for this project.

    Nope! You are welcome to watch just the sections pertaining to pockets. With my simple video instructions, you will understand how to add pockets to anything!

  • Is this tutorial for kids?

    I did not make this sew along with kids in mind, and I go into a lot of details that may lose the attention of younger students; however, if you feel that your child is ready to get sewing, and has the capacity to carry out the whole project (maybe with your assistance), I think they might really benefit from this project as a beginning step.
