Hey y’all! Every year I post a recap of the most popular Melly Sews tutorials from the past year, and today I’m sharing #1...

For a long time, I considered designing a leggings pattern for my Blank Slate shop. I ended up doing an informal poll among my testers, and decided instead to run a few posts here about drafting your own and adding a couple details.
And apparently that was just what you wanted, because it was the top tutorial of 2019 on Melly Sews! After making your basic pattern, you can learn how to sew a yoga-type waistband and an ankle tie detail. Because we’re never too old for ballerina touches, amiright?

I can’t wait to try making my own leggings. My inseam is 36″ so finding ready-fit legging is either impossible or expensive. Thank you!
