Since these jammies were inspired from the diving horse movie, that kindof became the theme. I was going to applique something more masculine on the chest of the jammies so they'd look less like baby lingerie, and so I found old photographs of actual diving horses.
So on the chest of the jammies, I used the freezer paper stenciling to paint the diving horse. To be honest, I was kindof disappointed in the turnout. The tower is too big and it's hard to tell what it all is. If I could redo it, I would just do the horse with the rider diving.
I used pearly cowboy snaps on the back rather than the red buttons I had planned earlier, to add to the horse theme.

So the chest is a little too wide, but he likes the silky jim-jams and they turned out pretty cute I think. I used a red t-shirt for the contrast binding and the strip of red on the back.
Vintage cut, silky, horsey pajamas.
