[MsXD100]

COME BACK TO NEBRASKA(:

[wesisahollisterfreek]

I live in Nebraska!! :D

[lostwithoutstage]

Guess what, walmart brought their sewing section back ^__^

[MsFreakishlyawesome]

I want you to be my mom! lol

[happybirdlover]

YES LAST YEAR WAS VERY BRRRRRRRRR COLD ALMOST SNOWED ACTUALLY SNOWED A BIT

[littlepaws101]

I thought the method you used for putting on the elastic instead of making a casing is genius!

[xx0Kiki0xx]

you are so PRETTY!!!! :D

[amyloo3]

you're socks are adorable i found your videos today i love them and subscribed x

[Xmiikkii3X]

She has it in the desc. ^^^

[yaoifan161]

can u plz tell me the name of the song u used in the backround cuz i swear i heard that song in a taiwanese drama i watched a while back and i fell in love with the song but i never knew the name or artist of the song.....plz and thank u btw u should be a designer/hairstylist 1 day :D

[InesLudovico]

@yaoifan161 Heyyy it's "Bu de bu ai" by Pan Wei Bo

[mycreation214]

on the pattern m6173 did u use small or medium

[mobandy64]

OMG you used to live in Nebraska!? I LIVE IN NEBRASKA!! :)

[Tranx3forever]

Aww! I friken love the leggins ^^

[pozuelosy1994]

i love ur make up can u do some vid on make up

[Skittl1321]

Thanks for the excellent video- I really love the way you do your elastic.

Is there a reason to do the inseams before the crotch/back seam? Most other videos do it the other way.

[Evange]

@Skittl1321 Not really, it's just a matter of preference. Doing the crotch seam first seems to be easier to get everything lined up right, but doing the leg first seems easier to visualize.

[katie110111]

i wanna know the reason why leggings are better, i think its cool

[CraftLover12]

i don't get what she did at 2:03-2:27? plz someone help me!

[MsAlleycaT101]

Is the music Be De Bu Ai? I <3 that song! <3

[mahryeyah]

Quesssstiiiioooon! Does the material for the tights have to be stretchy? I have some beautiful cotton fabric that doesn't stretch and would look amazing for this!

[Evange]

@mahryeyah For leggings, yeah. you wouldn't be able to get the leggings on or off if they didn't stretch.

[LiesKillMe]

how do you make a leg piece skinnier once you've already sewn the inseams?

thanks in advance.

[WEwalked]

OHMYGOD! You're from Houston? Or ar you studying in Houston? Anyways, I live in Houston! So great to see such great talent in Houston. :D

[FatFreeJelloPimp]

THANK YOU, I've been looking all over for a video as straight forward as this.

[anarbelaez04]

I can't read your blog :(

[wierd01499]

can you use a zig zag stitch instead of a twin stitch?

[Evange]

@wierd01499 Yup.

[cosmichoshi]

aww i love this song : )

nice video! thank you for posting it

[ChockyStickLover]

I just got this pattern today, I LOVE it!! But which pair of legings did you make? A,b,or C?

[xshootinghearts]

are those rain boots i see?! D:

where did you get them and for how much? ^^

please and thank you!

[ACCFsQueenofBelville]

Man, patterns would be nice if I wasn't 14 and I could actually go grab one:(

[Evange]

@ACCFsQueenofBelville Why cant you get patterns just because you're 14?

[lev2233]

im a noob 0_0

[heleneea]

can u explain the elastic again?

first u sew it onto the fabric

then u fold it and sew on top of ur previous stich?

and u have to strech as u sew rite?

[interestish]

Woah, you live in Houston? That's not too far away from where I live!

[CollidingSparks]

hey how much yard do you need for the leggings

[Evange]

@CollidingSparks There should be a chart on the back of the pattern explaining how much fabric to get. 

[CollidingSparks]

hey can i just sew around it twice, because i don't have twin needles or a serger

[Evange]

@CollidingSparks you can buy a twin needle, they cost about $4. But you could also use a zig-zag stitch.

[tinee04]

you're so talented:)

[pushingsixty]

I really need to learn how to use a sewing machine and do stuff like this.

[nikitadotcom]

your blogs do not work/show up T_T

[alma1621]

i have that hat!! i got it at walmart!! lol

[itsHelenHere]

WHATS THE BACKGROUND SONG

[woaini4evr]

@itsHelenHere - Wilber Pan - 不得不愛 (Bu De Bu Ai)

[athena417]

yay! Hancock fabrics had all McCall's patterns on sale for 99 cents yesterday =D I'll be making some leggings soon =).

Question: I've never sewn with a pattern before... I'd like my leggings pattern to last a while. Do you think I could make a posterboard template (like you have for tank tops)? Does anyone have any suggestions? Lol, I guess I could open up the pattern and look myself XP

[KnuffellinchenxD]

why are leggings warmer than jeans? o: please tell me! ;D

[Evange]

@KnuffellinchenxD Probably because jeans get stiff in cold weather.

[143HLUB]

cool :p

[xAyuka]

"This is to give it room for your booty!''

LOL.

[iiSingInTheSunShine]

i wish i knew how to sew...arghh one day i will go to a class and learn >:D

[carmencitacolon]

man...I wish I knew how to sew :(

[babi3pink]

@carmencitacolon its easyyy <3~ all you need to do is buy your machine, read the manual, research the words on there if you dont understand some of the buttons and there you go, youtube has a few vids on how to sew too (:

[ipodgirl123435]

could you make a vid on how to make a romper using the pattern?

[randomweirdo25]

@ipodgirl123435 she made a video how to make a romper just use different pattern.

[AkumaXKami]

This is great. I actually love how easy pants are to make so I should totally try out leggings. I'm definitely getting this pattern.

[pickledpandas]

I have GOT to get that pattern, it's one of the Mccalls patterns I've been wanting, but I've been missing the 99 cent sales :( I adore leggings, they are comfy and make everything look good XD Instead of a twin needle, could you serge it?

[SecretLifeOfaBioNerd]

@pickledpandas serge w/ a 4 thread..that works fine !

[aliciable4]

Yay, leggings! <3

It would be awesome if you did more cold weather clothing because I want to make all the cute clothes in your videos, but I can't wear them (until summer!) because it's like -10F outside. :(

[ebzize]

You are always on POINT!!! Would you by any chance know how to make tights???? I really have been wanting to make my own.

[Evange]

@ebzize aren't tights basically the same thing as leggings, but with thinner fabric?

[luvableeyore]

I love the song that's playing, it's on an old cd my friend made for me long ago, and it brings back memories.

[eeveellyynn]

HOUSTON! OMG! I live in houston too :)

[rikkijk3]

" patterns are hard especially if you're a noob" LOL

[zrcutie123]

you live in houston?

I DO TOO !

omgggg.

[pippylunalove]

Thank you so much!

[xlemonlandx3]

OHMYGOD! YOU USED TO LIVE IN NEBRASKA?!

NO WAY :D

I LIVE IN NE<3

[YMV2010]

I agree. Leggings are warmer than pants.

[10azangel10]

[PiinkBunniie]

@SecretLifeOfaBioNerd gelato is probably digging because she isn't fixed. (im guessing) You should wait till she's 6 months. <33

[valliemcpallieful]

Geez your not allowed to do anything xd

Just wait

[CLU3L3SSS]

hey K.L.,

you are my idol! I am not allowed to go on youtube, but i do just to watch your videos. I want to be a great sewer like you. I am only 12, i am turning 13 in december. i try to sew using my mom's old sewing machiene, but she doesnt like me using it. I want to make leggings, but i don't have stretchy fabric OR a pattern. i asked my mom if she could take me to JoAnn's to get them, but she said no. I also wanted to make a romper out of a dress, but she said no to that too! help!

[blue0eyes6]

@CLU3L3SSS yikes your mom sounds strict haha

[chusunhi]

@CLU3L3SSS i have the same problem, except im a little older... by VERY LITTLE........ and im aloud to go on youtube, other then that, my mum says no to almost everything TOO!! Almost... just saying :)

[JessyfulRaye]

ooh do more videos like this! I think its amazing you can make clothing.. wish I could read patterns

[xMzSillyx123]

ahahah ...but i doesn't matter coz no ones gonna look up there ahh you crack me up ;p

[cindyloukatz1]

two thumbs up!:D

[byakugan625]

i agree with your leggings are warmer than jeans theory :)

are making leggings sort of the same as making stockings?

[elletastical]

SERGEEE HOW DO U USE IT @_@

[ImmaShiaholic]

i just bought this pattern today! but it wasnt on sale for 99 cents, and it was the last one in the store, so i just went ahead and bought it full price(well, 40% too). but i was wondering, am i supposed to cut the actual paper pattern to the size i need? thanks!

[kelseyheartscomesify]

why are leggings warmer than jeans?! now i'm curious! :O

[emmypuff101]

love you ^_^

[thestarynight89]

wow its great to see fashion DIY videos and I LOVE leggings all winter even though everyone thinks I'm crazy

[xxCristycravexx]

Oh my gosh!!

Where did you get those socks?! They are soo cute!

[mcutaran]

You should try and mix up using patterns and not using them please!

[BukeyBoy]

You're so beautiful! you should be a model, like seriously no joke.

thumbs up if you agree=D

[GelatoDaVinci]

@BukeyBoy oh no no no no no..haha I like telling models what to do, how I want them to walk, and what they have on their face and their hair. I am bossy like that LOL I don't think i can be a model!

[bellynda1]

@BukeyBoy Sure, along with the 5 million other self obsessed girls in the US, no you should be a designer or something with dignity and substance.

[bellynda1]

@bellynda1 I wanted to add that you have an eye for fashion.

[XxmintkissxX]

I love the background song, so pretty! and the leggings are awesome! I love leggings <3

[CelesteHarmonyXOXO]

Will you do a vid. on what you wear with leggings?

[FCDK1]

I think you should do more basic tutorials along with these tutorials because a lot of the time, i dont know what your talking about in terms of stiching and how you would sew the things correctly

[NamiiCho]

how did you sew the bottom hem of the leggings ? i don't think it was included in the video. ):

[PhunB]

omg is this song bu de bu ai? :D 

[ilai3]

@PhunB OMG i love that song :)

[panduhchan]

[kouriskiii]

[WhenYouDrop]

[lovepandas5]

I love leggings and this tutorial really gave me ideas on different kinds of legging. But I do have a problem how do you sew the two pieces together because it looked really confusing :/

[jazziesaurus]

Loved this tutorial, can you do one on how to make a pattern for some skinny jeans?!! I've been in the mood to make myself some! Thank You!!! :D

[912009]

[TheMay1010]

[TheMoptimusPrime]

Hi there, In my country we are just comming into spring so I don't really need to wear leggings anymore but during winter I was wearing leggings almost all the time and I can say that It was Way better than jeans. Leggings feel so comfy and warm and If like me you managed to put on a bit of Winter weight, I highly recommend wearing leggings because of the stretch! . Thanks for this video :)

[SecretLifeOfaBioNerd]

@TheMoptimusPrime  I AGREEEEE!

[SuperDfarley]

ughh..i live in Nebraska and its gettin cold!!!!! not a fan of the coldness... lol
