Say hello to easy relaxation with The Palermo Pajamas, a dreamy two-piece loungewear set designed with effortless flair. This free sewing pattern includes a loose-fitting button-up shirt with thoughtful details like a crisp collar, a practical front pocket, and piping accents for a polished finish. The relaxed-fit pants are designed with an elastic waistband and matching piping to complete the look while ensuring all-day comfort. The Palermo Pajamas are soft, stylish, and perfect for unwinding at home!
Stretch ITY jersey brings this design to life by offering unparalleled softness, breathability, and elasticity for unrestricted movement. Its smooth texture drapes beautifully, giving the pajamas a luxurious yet casual feel. The 75% widthwise stretch ensures ultimate flexibility and ease of movement, making it a great choice for lounging. The fabric’s durability means these pajamas can handle frequent washes without losing their shape or softness. If you’re looking for other fabric options, lightweight cotton jersey offers a breezy, natural alternative, while fabrics like silk provide a luxurious feel for those restful nights.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced sewist, sewing the Palermo Pajamas is an enjoyable sewing experience. Use a ballpoint needle (size 75/11 or 80/12) with polyester all-purpose thread to achieve smooth, even seams on a stretchy fabric. A walking foot or stretch stitch can help manage the stretch and ensure precision to prevent puckering. When working with piping, take your time to align the details perfectly, using a zipper foot to create a professional finish that elevates the look of any garment.
For cozy mornings, pair this pajama set with a fluffy robe and slippers to enjoy your coffee in comfort. When winding down after a long day, they’re perfect for relaxing with a book or binge-watching your favorite shows. The shirt can even double as a casual top, styled with jeans or leggings for a chic, laid-back outfit. Choose your favorite color or your preferred print to personalize this look and enjoy the satisfaction of creating a staple loungewear set that’s as practical as it is elegant. Whether you’re treating yourself to a relaxing sewing project or crafting a thoughtful handmade gift, the Palermo Pajamas are ideal for wearing all year-round!
