Tilly & The Buttons Sewing Pattern - Fifi Pyjama Set

Make your own delicate camisole and shorts set with the Fifi sewing pattern - lovely for lounging in at home or wearing to bed.

The camisole is cut on the bias to create a flowing shape, with soft pleated cups, gently shaped princess seam back and bias binding straps. The shorts have a narrow stitched-in elastic waistband and cheeky curved hems. Oh là là!

A treat for stitchers looking to advance their skills, the instructions will walk you through techniques for sewing bias cut fabric, creating binding and finishing the insides with impressive French seams.

Fabric suggestions: Lightweight drapey fabrics that feel nice against the skin, such as lawn, voile, viscose challis or silk satin. Best to avoid directional prints as the camisole is cut on the bias and the shorts on the straight grain.
