    Hey everyone! I am new to the site (but definitely not new to sewing Wink) I bought a couple really cute flannels to make my girls some flannel pajamas for their birthday and christmas and was wondering if you guys had any patterns for night gowns?

      I have made at least 6 of a Creative Keepsakes simple, bishop style pattern. This was one of the first garments I tried. Both sets (white oxford cloth and lavender brushed cotton check) have worn very well...like 3+ years! The neck is nice and wide, so there's not buttons. My daughters love them b/c they are comfy and old fashioned without being too sweet. I smocked using simple, tonal geometric designs and it looks lovely. I did add a cotton eyelet trim to the wrists, but omitted any ruffles. The overall look is clean. 

      CKP#198 Child's Smocked Gown/Robe
      Sizes Girls 1-6 (their sizes are quite long, even with a deep hem.)


      The other pattern I've liked is New Look 6334. I whipped up two girl gowns from a thrifted sheet. These have also worn well.
