I believe that it may have been previously mentioned here that my brother is an obsessed Star Wars fan. So when I saw this sheet set at a local thrift store, there was no question what it would become! This is my TNT pattern for mens' PJ pants - B6887 - OOP now but still available on eBay, etc. - but this time I did not make the fly functional or add a drawstring, as the fabric would have needed substantial interfacing to make buttonholes or hold snaps. He said that he really doesn't use them, anyway, so I saw no point.
And Thing 2 is in need of some new PJs. Actually, this was supposed to be a pair of winter PJs, but I screwed up my cutting layout and wasn't able to get both front and back cut out in the full length. So I put my screwed up pieces aside while I ordered more fabric (on etsy, paying far more than I had for the original length, grrrr), and instead I cut out a pair of shorts. After finishing them, I added some sharks to a purchased shirt to complete the new summer set. I still plan to finish the originally planned set, though that will have to wait until some other birthday gifts are finished. I may even have enough left over for another short set, that would become someone's birthday gift....hmmm.....
