I actually need Autumn pyjamas more than I need Autumn clothes. I also need relaxed gym clothes.
I therefore have a cunning plan which is to make yoga pants, leggings, knit tops etc in various fabrics and wear the loud ones as nightwear and the more 'normal' ones to the gym. I can try some new patterns as wearable muslins which become PJs. I am particularly interested in slim pants and leggings in PJs as I think they would be less prone to creawl up the legs, flap about and be cold. I am cold at night so need long sleeves and long legs in things, none of this cami top nonsense, I am also planning on making the rainbow psychadelic cat fleece fabric into a dressing gown (aka robe).
Aren't they jolly? And of course if there is any left over..... I foresee hat, scarf, fleece booties and all other manner of hideous fleece-age. I can't wait and of course will be super toasty this winter if I do so :-)

Love that fabric! I had something similar with dogs on it. Made a winter hood/scarf combo and fringed the ends. Loved it!
What patterns will you use for your PJ/workout clothing? I'm interested in doing much the same thing. And I agree with you, bare arms means I get cold at night.
Mee-oowwww!! ;) CUTE, Ruthie!!

Love the idea of autumn pyjamas. I'm thinking about fall wardrobe, but didn't think about pjs. Thanks for sharing the idea!
Its definitely cold enough for autumn pj's - they stated its been the coldest and wettest August for many years.
Despite being a dog lover - the cat fabric is cute :-)
Very good ideas. Love the cat fabric for the dressing gown. I too need to sew some warm PJ's... or get out my hot water bottle. :)
Where did you get that cat fabric???
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT FABRIC I HAD A FLEECE JUMPER WHEN I WAS YOUNGER MADE FROM THAT FABRIC AND IT IS NOW LOST FOREVER. PLEASE TELL ME SO I CAN RECREATE IT!
I got the cat fabric more than 10 years ago, so I don't recall where it was from. I suspect even if I did they don't stock it anymore.
