Sewing children's pajamas is one of those jobs that beginner craftswomen can safely take on. The difficulty level is quite easy, the fabric consumption is less than for clothes for an adult. In addition, if small errors are made during work, then this is not a problem, because pajamas are intended only for home use, and even at night.

how to sew pajamas for a child
36. autumn-spring jacket
I am now a specialist in jackets)). I ordered the red one at a discounted price. The quality is excellent, odorless, threads do not stick out. True to size. The hood is comfortable, deep and everything is covered near the neck, so you can wear it without a scarf. Fluff, but thin, not late for autumn, but the description does not say winter. Bright, light balone. Easy to roll up and wipe clean. It dries quickly, which is important for Peter.
37. rag slippers for the garden.
In fact, the purpose of purchasing these slippers was precisely for kindergarten. I liked the color and the price. Unfortunately, nowhere was it written that it was for wide feet. The quality of the slippers is very good, they are stitched and glued, but not for our full feet. They don’t smell like glue, the threads don’t stick out. Corresponds to the picture.
38. Children's sneakers.
A year ago I bought some gorgeous sneakers for my son, but after a month of active use, believe it or not, you won’t look at them without tears. The socks are completely knocked off. The time has come to choose the next ones, I decided not to take such expensive ones so that I could calmly watch what my son does with them. Boy...I tried to combine price and quality. It is clear that even in a store for 2 thousand you are not always sure whether it is leather or suede. No one here promised suede. I liked it externally. The plus was the Velcro under the lace. We encourage our son to take off and put on shoes on his own and at 3 years old it is stupid to demand good handling of the laces... and here... there are laces to adjust the fullness and Velcro. The waiting period was not a pleasant/unpleasant surprise, as always. Packaging without a box, anyone who orders shoes on Ali knows that this is the norm rather than the exception. Packed well. The sneakers are not deformed. Bright. My son liked it right away. I was satisfied with the purchase. I will say that for this price I only bought the last pair of sneakers at HM on sale with a huge discount without the opportunity to return them)) I’m happy
39.children's bandana for girls
I recently received a bandana. The opinion is ambiguous. Everything seems to be as in the description, corresponds to the stated parameters, but I didn’t like it at all on my child. The look is not stylish or funny, rather collective farm. Although, as a piece of headwear, it fulfills its function. A little too big for our 5 month old head, but thanks to the elastic it doesn’t fall off. Cotton. Bright.
40.hair bands
I ordered them for myself, but a pleasant surprise was how great they look on my daughter. I really liked the rubber bands. Lovely ones. The threads do not stick out. Set of 10 pieces, different colors. At first there was a slight smell, but after washing it went away. In the store the price for 1 piece is more expensive than here for 10.
41. Headbands for girls.
The headbands are very cute and neat. Beautiful flowers. I took different ones. Bright. Some are wide, some are narrow. Corresponds to the description. They do not paint the head, the seams are even, there is no smell.
42. Boy's suit 3 pieces
The suit is as in the photo. The quality is average - there are uneven seams, threads stick out, the fabric is very faded when washed, the fabric is wrinkled, the vest and trousers contain some synthetics, the shirt is cotton. For a height of 85 cm, I ordered size 4T (90), which turned out to be about 8-10 cm too big. The trousers do not correspond to the picture: there were no cuffs and straps for the belt, as shown in the picture.
43. Home pajama suit
This product is the leader of my orders. I order a lot for myself and for gifts. I think it's an excellent combination of price and quality. Nice pajamas made of thin cotton. The pants are a bit narrow at the waist, for thin children. The pattern is not rubber, it is printed, the suit is sewn well. We use it both as a home suit, and as pajamas, and in the off-season in kindergarten it is bright and beautiful. The child is ready to wear it anytime, anywhere. I order with his favorite characters. We are waiting for new ones by the fall)) someone writes, not 100 cotton. I agree, BUT not all. Some pajamas are definitely pure cotton without synthetics, in some places you can feel that they are. I've only had no luck with one so far. The remaining 6 types are cotton. They don't shed. Over time (a year of frequent wear and washing), the color becomes paler, the pattern is a little frayed, but for the money, I think a year is a good indicator. They run small. Different suits have different elastic bands on their pants.
44.Dress ^summer^
The dress is great! The top is cotton, very pleasant. The bottom is not see-through, fluffy. The tulle is overlaid at the bottom. The threads don't stick out anywhere. Beads on pins can be removed. The flowers hold up well and are embroidered. It looks bright, but gentle.
45. Swimsuit
Gorgeous swimsuit. The seams are very neat, factory sewing, the fabric is excellent. I took it as a gift for a 3-year-old girl, it fit perfectly and there is even a spare, because... panties with ties and bra straps are adjustable. I recommend the product!! There is no smell. Doesn't shed. Bright and beautiful.
46. Dress ^peony^
Simply gorgeous dress! Excellent materials: mesh lace on top with a thin cotton lining (goes down to the bottom of the dress), thick cotton on the skirt. Stitched neatly. I was pleased with the strip of fabric under the zipper (the only thing is that it could be white, but that’s good - the main thing is that the zipper won’t scratch the child’s back). The measurements of the dress correspond to those given in the table. In general, I am 100% satisfied, you rarely see such quality for such money.
47. Panama hat ^my tulip^
A small, cute, neat cotton hat, with a lining and an elastic band at the back. For children up to one year old. Sorry for the mini photo of my flower, but the hat is adorable. It contains a baby doll.
48. Shirt with bow tie.
Not all my orders are 100% satisfying. Here is one of such orders. I ordered it for my son’s kindergarten for the holiday. The shirt matches the picture, but does not match the description. Not cotton. More like cotton + synthetic. An interesting solution with a butterfly, it is on a pin. Needed - fastened, no - removed.
49. First sandals
The shoes are cute, there is no smell, they arrived within a month. The insole was a little disappointing. It moves easily inside the shoe, which is uncomfortable. Sandals with soft rubberized soles, decorative side seams, material not leather.
