Christmas pajama pants are probably the most common tradition, don’t you think? If you are lucky enough to have people to sew for, make them some P.J. Pants for Christmas this year! The free pattern that I used is super fast to sew so it can even be a very last minute gift.
Like many of you (I imagine) I spent a lot of time this week finishing up last minute presents. One of which was these p.j. pants for my 7 year old Cadie. These were sewn from my free P.J. Bottoms and Shorts Pattern.
I put a cute little mis-matchy bow on the front so she could put them on right. Does that mushroom ribbon go with the flannel fabric on the pants? I can’t tell, but since both are cute I know she’ll like them anyway.
For the pant cuffs I used soft fleece. They are so snuggly!
Christmas p.j.’s are one of our family traditions, as well as secret santa and a Christmas Eve trip to the beach. What else are you going to do when you have 80 degree weather but wish there was snow?
So, what have you been sewing up this week? Did you make something with one of my free sewing tutorials or patterns? I would love to see! Tag me on Instagram @sewcanshe.

Have you fallen in love with Quilt as You Go yet? It’s a fun technique for quilts, of course, but I’m having lots of fun using it for pouches and tote bags too.

At my daughter Chloe’s high school (can you believe my baby started high school???), the lunch lines are so long that she has been skipping lunch! She’s always starving by the time she gets home because she doesn’t want to carry a big lunch bag as well as her heavy backpack – poor girl!
Looking for free table runner patterns? I gathered up all my favorites in one place – here are free quilt patterns for table runners for fall, winter, spring and summer!
I am so in love with the beautiful look of simple patchwork quilts with lots of squares. This is the perfect way to use up fabric scraps like I did, or you can make a beautifully coordinated quilt with pre-cut 2 1/2’’ square fabric pieces that come in mini-charm packs.
I’m also in love with the process. If you feel like quilt making is your escape from the world and sitting down to sew for a few hours makes your troubles fade away… this is the quilt for you!
Sew an easy beautiful apron with this free sewing pattern that only uses one yard of fabric! Whether you are sewing for yourself or for a friend, an apron always comes in handy and makes a great gift. This blog post includes a link to a free template that I digitized for you.

Are you busy? I can’t hear you right now, but I’m sure you said ‘YES!’ These days everyone I know is so crazy busy with kids (carpooling, volunteering at school, science fair projects, feeding, bathing, keeping the rascals alive), work (commuting too!), and homemaking (dishes, laundry, floors, beds, bathrooms and on and on) that some people say they have no time to sew… GASP!
