I really love YCMT. I already have the "Easy Fit Pants" pattern and it is really a great, easy pattern. I want to make my kids some pajamas since they have grown out of all their old ones. I would love to have the "All the Rage Raglans" pattern to make the PJ tops with and I'd use the Easy-fit pants pattern for the bottoms. Thanks for the chance!
