Kids of all sizes love snuggling up in a pair of cozy, footed pajamas ... including the 18-inch variety!

Also known as a blanket sleeper, these PJs are stretchy and form-fitting. Suitable only for four-way stretch knits, they can be made of a variety of weights and textures, from thick and furry fleece to thinner, lightweight fabrics. You could even recycle your favorite t-shirts!

Options for the collar and cuff in this PDF pattern include using the same fabric as the body or a contrasting fabric. For a realistic touch, try using textured fabric for the soles. (You wouldn't want your doll to slip!) Fairly simple in construction, these jammies go together quickly for most beginner-level seamstresses who aren't afraid to tackle a zipper.
