Description

Leggings with Pockets is on Saturday, January 25, 2025 from Noon to 5:00 pm edt.   One of the most frequently asked questions I get is… “How do I add pockets to  my leggings??   …If you want pockets in your leggings, then this is the class for you!   We will be working with the Trident Yoga Pants pattern and Black Performance Sports Knit.  To kick things off, I’ll help  you pick the best starting size.  Then you’ll learn how to make simple fit adjustments so the custom waistband sits where it’s comfortable and the hem is just the right length.

When the pattern pieces are adjusted properly, I’ll show you how to design a simple pocket that fits right into the side panel of these leggings.   You can customize the size of the pocket make it as deep as you need!  If you’re  new to designing pattern pieces… this is a great introduction.   Finish up by creating the custom waistband and hemming the legs or adding cuffs. Along the way I’ll share all my tips and tricks to get professional results whether you’re using a serger or a sewing machine.  Leave class with your new favorite go-to with POCKETS on cold winter days!   ZOOM LINK will be emailed to you a week before class.
