I did the v necked version.<br /><br />http://www.simplicity.com/p-2588-plus-size-sportswear.aspx<br /><br />There were only six pieces to the whole garment. Front, back, the two sleeves and the collar facing which was two simple pieces front and back. I used a zigzag stitch to finish all the seams. <br /><br />The trickiest part was setting in the sleeves. I rushed it a little bit but the shirt turned out okay in spite of my lack of patience. <br /><br />I did the pants in flannel. I'd never sewn pants before and they came out way too big but are comfy and great for cold nights when you don't care about anything but comfort.
