How-To: Design and Sew Your Own Leggings

Cal Patch, author of Design-It-Yourself Clothes and all around crafty lady, shared this awesome tutorial for designing and sewing your own leggings on The Etsy Blog.

I adore leggings. I live in leggings. I always wish I had more leggings: colored ones, printed ones, stripey ones, long cozy woolly ones in winter, and shorter lightweight cotton ones in summer. I wear them under dresses or tunics, I wear them to the gym, I lounge and sleep in them. As a clothing designer, I’m glad I can make my own, because when I look around I don’t see nearly enough options out there in fun colors, prints, and natural fibers. Today I’m going to show you that you can make your own leggings, too!

Imagine living in a world where custom leggings flatter your shape—and come in any crazy pattern or color you gosh darn choose! Are you excited? Because, I definitely am.
