Pajama Kharma
Today I had a little accident…which sparked off a chain of events which actually seemed to make the day just ….flow…..
This morning, whilst getting up off the floor – I ripped my pants – or more precisely my PJ bottoms…straight down the bum. Whilst it was a good comedy moment (not even half as good as Jays comedy classic, that still makes me laugh even typing it now – when he managed to rip a pair of jeans down the bum – seriously, a pair of jeans…how thick is the material on those bad boys!!)
So – a little bit miffed that my Marks and Sparks PJ’s had given up the ghost (and in fact the last pair of PJ’s I had) I decided that all was not lost and I could make them into a pair for Maddy – which is exactly what I did.
Mads didn’t quite *get it* at first when I showed her the pair of jammies I had made her, from my old jammies – ‘no Mummy, the’re yours – there’re too big for me’ So I made her little lamb a matching pair also – and she has been happily wearing them ever since.
So here is a photo of Mads (and Little Lamb) in their new recycled Jammies.
Later on in the day - call it kharma, or devine intervention, or just damn good timing, but what should arrive in our mail box – but a new pair of Jammies for me, which I had ordered a few weeks ago – fantastic!
So this them prompted another little project, to make Mads a matching pair of camper van PJs with the Heather Ross material I bought…so here they are in all their matching glory! Love the fabric of Mads Jammies and I am working on a cute autumn top in the same fabric.

And here is a shot of the little Fairy Bunny who visited us for dinner today….
