After trying for some time to convince my son that bathrobes are meant to have three-quarter length sleeves and come down mid-thigh, I realized I'd better make him a new one. Seriously, his old one was way too small as I made it two years ago. This one is made of flannel that I got at Joann's famous black Friday sale last year for CHEAP! Have I ever mentioned that I have a thing about nicely finished seams? Since I don't have a Serger, I always zig-zag everything, but this time....drumroll, please....I did everything with French seams. Ha! I realize it may be a bit excessive but it sure looks nice to not have any raw edges showing.
