Making my own leggings

Finally I have taken up sewing classes again and I am now officially hooked.

It has always been my dream to start making my own clothing and I am now finally getting there..

Sewing is such a therapeutic art when you finally get the hang of it and I really suggest (if you enjoy clothing or being crafty) that if you need a new hobby, take a sewing class when you have free time- you won't regret it.

So, as a result of falling in love with sewing, I decided to make my own pair of icy blue high-waisted leggings today...here are a few pictures of the steps taken to make my leggings:

Always use a fabric that is nice and stretchy when making leggings.

Here is a picture of my chosen pattern pinned next to the salvage of the fabric.

Before you start sewing, always make sure you have a thread that matches the colour of your chosen fabric. Also after cutting out your pattern you can use the scraps/ leftovers of your fabric to practice sewing a few stitches before you begin sewing your actual product.

Voila! The finished product <3

I really enjoyed making these and they only took a few hours to make!

Stay posted to see how I use these in an OOTD... :)

p.s I would love to hear about all of your sewing journeys and what your favourite thing is to make <3
