Gosh, MK, that’s a tricky one. I guess what you are trying to avoid is puckering the button holes when making them, or worse them tearing as pj’s are worn/washed. Snaps (or press studs, as Aussies call them) would be good for obvious reasons but I would recommend interfacing the button panels as you would if you were buttonholing so the snaps don’t eat into the satin. SP is going to feel very glamorous, isn’t she? So glad to hear that the little prince is feeling better; hope you are getting some catch up sleep.
Good luck with preps – pjs and sweetmeats- for G’s birthday. I hope he has a great day – well as good as he can on a school day. Can heartily recommend Ice Cream dress to sew (no button holes for starters); I’ve seen some lovely pinwale cord on an Aus site (and despite it’s forecast to be 40C tomorrow) I’m thinking how nice the IC dress would look in corduroy. Because it’s roomy, shouldn’t be too much problem with it gripping tights etc. Lining is always an option, too. Have a good week.
