Sewing tutorial: How To Make Leggings! (DIY)

[pheonixphire]

you have a great figure (jealous) and i love this tut!

[copplepot]

Hi, you look realy cute in leggings! I like it.

[TheBekKM]

This is a really good tutorial, but I kind of wish we could see how the fabric was folded beforehand just cause it kind of makes a difference...

[MyKoolChannel]

Damn that ass

[brontegeraghty]

this is such a great tutorial thankyou! i can see myself making way to many pairs of these! ta muchly from australia!

[Crunchy68]

I'm having some trouble sketching my pattern. Unlike you, the fullest part of my hips is 3" below my waist, and my tummy is actually larger than my butt. How can work in the extra fabric I need to cover my tummy?

[Crunchy68]

Thanks for this! I've been wanting this exact information. I KNEW leggings shouldn't be really difficult or require a paper pattern. Thanks so much for showing me how!!

I love wearing leggings under skirts. Now I can have as many as I want!

[advicemex]

You are so sexy in both pants black and blue. Thats how leggings should fit a woman with real curves not 2 skinny twig legs

[free2bmerih25]

those pants are FAB thank you so much for this video i have that exact same problem as you with tight on the hips and slack on the waist im going to try this asap

[bizkirk]

Nice and sexy!!!!!

[Bubblez123takeova]

Nice Body,,, You Got It No Homo,.

[SarahJaneRobyn]

Question! What is that lovely color called?

[Evange]

@SarahJaneRobyn Blue.

[SarahJaneRobyn]

@Evange Ofcourse. I thought there would be a specific name is all

[AvalonLilly]

@Evange I laughed so hard at this.

[donnaslot]

Great job, cant wait to try! thanks

[MsWonderfulj]

can you show how to make a leotard for your size? I am about your size or bigger but I have a bigger top then bottom?

[glamuary]

i just subscribed to your channel. if u get a chance, can u do a maxi dress? i want my first project to be extremely easy. i totally appreciate that u have very beginner-friendly projects already.

[glamuary]

i hear a canadian accent. do u know drake? just kidding. nice leggings. i like that cobalt blue. i have the perfect royal pump, but have nothing to wear with it yet.

[neil1758]

you are fine as hell! i'm in love.

[anotherwalmartslave]

Ah! you're so good! I haven't sewn in years. I've been looking for a pair of treggings like the ones on the asian fashion sites but haven't found a pair nice enough to my liking. If I can't find any, I could sew some, thanks to you! (I'm nervous about messing up/wasting good fabric so I'll keep looking first, haha)

[m1k3y60659]

e-mail me at vicky1898@yahoo.com

[m1k3y60659]

oo[s, i ment vickyp1898@yahoo.com

[MrDove82]

Damn you got some really nice meaty legs. Mmm beautiful.

[nunoPT]

You have a very sexy figure. Leggings are perfect to emphasize your beautiful curves.

[carriethediva]

Can u show me how to make that shirt u have on..?

[iHavePassion4Fashion]

You giver really clear instructions!

[MalteseLizzieMcGee]

I'm a little bit confused about which measurements go where when you're drawing the pattern. Is there a diagram on your website?

[asjewbali]

i ried your tutorial, pretty simple and easy. And ur rite:fits like a charm.! Going out tomorrow to buy some jeans material and trying my hand at jeggings. Great idea!

[Ems32084]

I Love This!!!! I have curves just like her and this is a perfect way to make leggings!!!

[smokes2468]

You are so beautiful you look so hot and sexy in those leggings.

[kishy696]

Just a question? The seam that goes from the crutch to the ankle, does the seam not break? Because the fabric is strechy? I wached ur video on sawing starchy fabrics and was wondering?

[bordone]

real women have curves and your a beautiful women

[MrW1DEAWAK3]

great figure

[MzKizz999]

Love your vids and tutes, especially this one because I have the same problem with leggings AND the waistband, I've been sewing for years (self taught) and never have I ever come across or thought of that style of waistband, I am officially in love with it!! Thank you so much and keep it up :)

[Kevitivity]

Wow. You look great.

[silversteampunk]

So, if I wanted to make striped ones, (really wide stripes, not little ones.) would it work if I sewed strips of fabric into one giant sheet then then cut the tights from that?

[Evange]

@silversteampunk Yeah, it would definitely be easier to make or buy striped fabric and then cut it from that, vs cutting the pattern into stripes and piecing it together from that. The great thing about my pattern is that there's no side seam, so your stripes wont get messed up.

[Melodyexpression]

@silversteampunk PLEASE! C'mon Stripes make you look fat.It is saying''hey,look at my legs!IO have circles going around it to show you how wide they are....I want to SUPERSIZE myself!''Sorry....My Mom got the book that's called Never look fat again.....sry :) (My Mom was 210,then dropped to 150,and still looked 210(until she dressed right)

[silversteampunk]

@Melodyexpression Oh well... I'm not concerned about looking fat.  It's for a costume anyway.

[Lawknee]

Would you show how you use a Double Needle some time?

[myfuckingcookies]

MMMMMMmmmmmm

[AKingZWldAQu33nZUnVZ]

I wouldn't reccomend cutting the bottom instead emphasize and do a gather and add some bling. Just a thought ; ^ )

[LunasCreation]

you never realize just how big your butt is untill you make these. my ass is huge!!! guranted im pregnant is still really big!!!!

[IanJayT]

Im a boy and a fabulous gay and I just got a sewing machine recently and your tutorials are a huge help

[superjenif]

thanks for the tutorial ...but have y ever tried makin an manniquin usin yuh body size....u can check the threadbanger vid to show u how so u don't necessarily have to measure yuhself so stiff.....

[Evange]

@superjenif i got a dress making form for christmas, but it has yet to be delivered.

[denisesomewhere]

Hey:) Thank you so much, I love all your work!!! I like how enthusiastic you always are in your video's. Is it possible that you could make a tutorial for round necklines? I am having such a difficult time making them myself. all the best from Dubai and keep up the great work girl!!!

[MyPinkRainbow]

great video , i so need leggings that are long enough so i dont appear to be waiting on a flood or something like that

[MrEddie1579]

my goodness you are soooo beautiful. are you single?:)

[fergi421]

I'm glad I watched your video for leggings. You did such a great job I'm going to try your technique.

[Glory2Eva]

I love your channel :D I'm taking textiles next year at school and I'm going to watch all your vids! I've got a sewing machine and I want a career in fashion!! If I get famous I'll credit you :)

[KatyAliceCullen]

I LOVE your tutorials! are fantastic!!!!! :)

[oozer23]

I love the elastic waist band technique! You are totally right on the rolled elastic hem, it does not look cute, at all. Also I love the fact you don't even put the pattern on paper, you're like "I don't need no pattern paper! F' that!", lol.

[MrsJasonT]

YAY! I'm sooooooooooooooo freaking excited to try this!! Thank you!

PS. You have such a beautiful body and personality. I look forward to more videos! :)

[nidzrulz4eva]

That was Sooo helpful. You're a great teacher. Thank you.

[ladolly78]

Great great tutorial and leggings !!!!...thank you so much !!!

[KyleYankan]

@evange Even in the final bit, where you're by the door? that's where it's most noticeable. But great video otherwise.

[iwanttogotohawaii11]

Evange I love your videos! I would love to see more dresses. Maybe a cap sleeve dress.

[youaresoveryromantic]

i dont think anything changed, but your hair looks gorgeous in this video! great tutorial as always : ) thank you -

[KyleYankan]

Hey Evange, might a make a suggestion? Your lighting should be at least eye level, preferably a bit above. I know it can be a pain in the arse to get it there, but it avoids that horror-movie lighting. You also looked quite lovely in your video.

[Evange]

@KyleYankan Hmmm, that's going to be quite difficult, as my lighting is attached to the ceiling.

[Skittl1321]

WOW! This video is amazing- Thank you so much. I tried to make leggings today and ended up with a too tight butt and a way baggy crotch (not to mention super baggy legs) The pattern did not work for me!

I'm going to try one more time to alter that pattern- but next time I might go from scratch like this. I'm thinking though that you know pretty well how deep to draw those curves- is that just trial and error? How do I get just the right amount of fabric on the butt and crotch?

[Evange]

@Skittl1321 Mine were a bit baggy in the crotch too, but not enough for it to be a problem.

Try turning the leggings inside out, putting them on, and pinning in the area where there is too much fabric.

[sewstyle]

Thank you for making sewing videos that are so clear and easy to understand. I just made my own first pair of pants, wow they fit me!! I always thought sewing pants would be the hardest! Not!!! With your easy instructions!!! Thank you sew much!!! I am so excited to sew more!! Please do more videos !

[xXxMySweetChannelxXx]

You're so adorable :D

[Flawlessfingers]

Great! Thanks heaps

[Ninjaeded]

These leggings look GREAT on you. I might actually be brave enough to try a pair of my own! (I'm already sewing one of your skirts :P)

[OohLaLaHolly]

Great video!! Glad you made a perfect pair of leggings! You did a great job at explaining the measurements, bc I never measure!

[OohLaLaHolly]

Your so curvy I love it!!

[doleph1]

Nice job! You have a gorgeous figure. :)

[dreamssumer]

¡Esta genial este tutorial! sobre todo porque es paso a paso ¡¡felicidades!!

[RuthiesXStitch]

I have never found leggings that would fit me properly either. I'll certainly be trying this.

A few questions. What stitch did you use? and, Would you suggest a stretch stitch or zig-zag?

[Evange]

@RuthiesXStitch I had filmed an explanation of which stitches to use, but I had to cut it from the video because of time.

I have a stretch setting on my sewing machine, so I used that (it does two stitches forward, one stitch back). But if you dont have that setting, a small zigzag is the next best thing.

[RuthiesXStitch]

@Evange

Thanks for clearing it up. I have many stretch stitches, but I also have that particular stitch.

Just need a trip to the fabric shop.

[pinkblackwitch]

Great job :) i'll try this sometime :D

[evoliath]

haha i wish i could freehand like you do... My hands shake like crazy :P

[Evange]

@evoliath Try using a french curve. I used for a while until I gained the confidence to freehand it.

[evoliath]

@Evange Thank you! I actually have one but i cant really free hand them because i have extremely shaky hands :)

[als7aimy]

Q: what would make a guy watch a 15 min sewing tutorial ?

A : evange .

good job girl , i really really enjoyed watching this tutorial :D.

[Evange]

@als7aimy Have you seen Robin Hood: Men in tights?

[als7aimy]

@Evange

i just imagined Russell Crowe doing this tutorial......lol :D .

[Evange]

@als7aimy Well, had you seen Robin Hood: Men in tights, then you would know that real manly men wear tights :P

[misschellekay]

Defiantly going to try this :) thanks for sharing tis :)

[billiemonster14]
