Here's the finish on my snuggly sleepwear. I only had a few things left to do on this final sewing session. I reinforced the underarm seams.
I hemmed the sleeves and the lower edge and...
Voila! Here's the front.
Here's the back.
I've worn it to sleep several times already and it is super comfy! I may sew another one. This is the pattern I used, McCall's 2476. Are you interested in apparel sewing? I have many patterns available in the Curlicue Creations shop, here: Dress Patterns

I had another short apparel sewing session this week. If you didn't catch my earlier post, I'm sewing the above sleepwear,
From this McCall's pattern.
During this sewing session, I finished the neckline. I added some top stitching (not shown in this photo) in a crisp white thread.
Next, I worked on the sleeves.
The sleeves were sewn to the shoulders first.
Then I sewed the underarm seam beginning from the cuff and going all the way down to the hem of the garment. I'm getting close to the finish! Maybe next time. Do you do any apparel sewing? Leave a comment below.
