This past weekend, I hosted a pajama sewing party at my house during Randy's travel to Detroit. We stayed in our pajamas all weekend, because changing into clothes would have taken way too much valuable time that we could have been sewing.
These are individual projects we were working on. I am working on three separate quilts of the month club blocks. The butterfly is my first applique project, and I really like the way it turned out. I am also working on a flirty thirty pieced block quilt and a 3 dimensional quilt. My pajamas are my birthday present from Kim...they are CHOCOLATE MOOSE jammies, I had to put a long sleeve shirt under the short sleeve top, because my sewing room is cold.

Sharon is working on an underground railroad quilt block of the month project that she is teaching, so she has to finish them in order to teach her students the quirks of each technique.
My friend Jill, whom I met through the Navy 4 Moms web site, and who happened to know Sharon through her husband, (Jeff) now her exhusband, who worked for the FAA.....is working on several quilts, but brought this one with her for technical assistance in arranging the blocks.
I regret that I did not take a picture of Trish, who mostly cooked a marvelous home made pasta luncheon for us Saturday, and some really yummy desserts rather than sewing. She is an amazing cook. Mostly I regret not taking her picture, because she had on her PJs too, and her shirt said OH MY GOD, MY MOM WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING! on it.
I also don't have a picture of Jodi, who came over for the day Saturday, and helped us with the charity quilts....she didn't wear her PJs though.
We had a great time. After sewing, we stayed up and watched Hallmark movies, and ate PIZZA!

Wow it looks like you guys had a great time. I hope I am able to attend next years PJ party!
Candi forgot to say that wearing our PJs all weekend was MY idea. I also wanted to eat breakfast all weekend, but Trish wouldn't hear of it!
I had to leave the party to go to a bridal shower on Saturday afternoon, sew I did have to get dressed. But, as soon as I returned to Candi's I promptly put my pajamas back on! Mine were Moose PJs too, and I had slippers to match!
I liked your post, Mom. I wish I can sew more at the next one... we will have to schedule it for when I DON'T have finals due next time. Haha.
