Oh, So Snuggly
August 21, 2011
Did you know that Children at Play has a flannel line?
When I made this Racer Stripe fabric, I was thinking “pajamas” all the way. Good old “Leave it to Beaver” button up PJ’s. Aren’t they perfect? My husband say’s he’s next in line for some.
I wasn’t exactly sure when the flannels would be ready for sale, so getting a package in the mail a couple weeks ago was quite the treat!
The Flannels are in the Over the Fence colorway…so lots of orange, blue and cream.
We’ve been getting ready for school to start (so many mixed feelings!) and since Addie and Ian will both be going full day (in contrast to last year, when they were only gone from me some days and for 1/2 day, this is a big transition!) Right now, their school clothes are laid out of their first day tomorrow, I have made my VERY FIRST set of school lunches (I feel like real mom now!) and I even had some new pajamas made for them to celebrate. These two were both for Ian, but Addie’s nightgown isn’t done yet, and she likes them just as much!
EDIT: This pattern is a ‘New Look’ Pattern (subcompany of Simplicity) #6746
But did you see? Oliver & S just came out with a great PJ pattern for their fall release in Sept.
We are ready for school to start! Although, I really do wish we had more lazy mornings!
And in case you think my children pose for me perfectly every time, here’s proof that photoshoots take all morning.
Happy Monday!

I was wanting to see how those turned out ; )

Awesome little jammies. That last picture is my favorite! lol Kids in action
Hello, very cute jammies!
My daughter and I have a blog where we write letters back and forth. Today we offered a prompt to our readers to make a handmade item. I wanted to tell you that I made my item from your spring catalog that I bought a few weeks ago. A placemat for my granddaughter. Come by and see it.

Oh my gosh, I’m in love.
There is nothing better than a super cozy pair of flannel pj’s. These look perfect for staying in ALL DAY!
Wonderful! And the stripe IS a perfect PJ fabric!
ohhhh I love that this is available in flannel too! Such a great colorway! gorgeous.
Those look SO cozy… some definitely need to be made in adult sizes!
P.S. I love the last picture!
i am also interested in the pattern…. i’m picturing christmas morning jammies for my 3 boys. love love love children at play!!
Did you use a pattern? They look fantastic. Would love to make them too but probably could not handle it without directions… So happy to see your fabrics in flannel.
They’re perfect! I agree with the others – please share what pattern you used
Thanks in advance.
These pics just made my heart sing! Cute kiddos and great pjs and quilt.
Thanks for helping me start my day with a smile.
Happy Monday to you! Hope everyone has a great day!
I love the last pic. It really shows Addie’s attitude and Ian’s wild side! Cute PJs too!
Sorry about no mentioning the pattern! The pattern is: ‘New Look’ Pattern (subcompany of Simplicity) #6746 and i’ve made an update in the post. Thanks!
cute! What pattern did you use for the pjs?
Ian looks so old!
What is the pattern for the quilt?
These are so adorable! I want a set of each for myself!!!
I love the one where they’re pretending to sleep!
I’m just adding this to the list. I can see new pj’s all round.
Oh so cute! Love the flanelette, we are itching to get out of it and into cool cotton on my side of the world though
Those are adorable!!! You made them the night before? I’ve always been too scared to do the tops, I only make the bottoms. I was thinking of you as school started….crazy, summer is over.
YEAH! I was literally wondering about this (if there was a flannel line) just Sunday. So, so happy!
I was so happy to learn that there were flannels in your collection. I just ordered them and they should be in my shop in about a week. Thank you!!!
Hello, hello! Just wanted to pop in and let you know that I just pre-ordered your book, I’m so excited to get it! Also, I *love, love* everything about this post! The fabric, the quilt (amazing!) the jammas & those sweet little faces too! Have a great day! xo
One of my favourite blogger Lindsay from “thecottagemama” blog (http://thecottagehome.blogspot.com/)
has done a outstanding job of creating beautiful collection of her patterns with children at play . Please check it out http://thecottagehome.blogspot.com/2011/08/children-at-play-collection.html
I love the pj’s and I love the quilt! Is there a pattern for it? x
Now those look like some comfy pjs. So cute.
I would love to get a pattern for the quilt! I am guesses your cool enough you just made it up. If so, would you make a pattern or a tutorial on how to. Love this line.
yes! I will get a pattern for this quilt. I did “make it up” but I had Amy sew it up based off my drawing and marking. I’ll work on getting a template for that airplane soon. It is a darling quilt, and one that I think would make for some great variations.
Thanks!
I second the quilt pattern request!
Oh yes, would love that quilt pattern!
sarah this SOOOO makes me want to learn to sew – like take a class & learn how to follow a pattern. not just the turn on-the-machine-and-recklessly-stitch-it-up kind of sewing that i do. :-/ … maybe i’ll get brave & put sewing lessons on my christmas / birthday list. these PJ’s are precious. p.s. LOVE the goofy pic of the kids.
SO CUTE.
Hi Sarah Jane,
Just wanted to say, as has everyone else, how much I LOVE this range. I Have never sewn before, but after seeing a dress made from the On Parade design, I went out and bought a sewing machine! I’m about to start learning and have had the good fortune to pick up a few metres of your designs and just can’t wait to create something for my two gorgeous nieces and handsome nephew.
I know that your sublime designs will make up for any shortcomings in my sewing ability. I just hope I can do them some justice.
I’ve been browsing the net, but can’t find a definitive list of which designs are available in flannel. Could you possibly list them or point me in the direction of where I could find the info?
Thanks so much.
