Sew Your Own LEGGINGS! Sunday April 28th 11-2:30
Learn to sew your own leggings! We will be making the versatile Peg Leg legging pattern from Patterns for Pirates. The pattern covers sizes XXS-5X. Scroll to the bottom of the page to view the sizes and measurements. With this one pattern you can make ankle length leggings, capris, bike shorts and shorties. The waist band is also customizable and can be low, mid or high rise. I will also teach you to make a cute faux cuff hem that looks really fancy but is actually easier than a traditional hem. We will be using an athletic knit fabric that is nice and stretchy, breathable, comes in a huge array of colors and is tried and true tested to be “squat proof’! Leggings can be made with a stretch stitch on a regular sewing machine or with a serger. This class is suitable for confidant beginners with some sewing machine experience. It is helpful to wear leggings or something that can easily be measured over during the workshop.
