Go To Leggings released! Giveaway Alert! (closed)
My Go To Leggings™ sewing pattern is finally available for you! I'm so excited about this pattern. I've tried leggings sewing patterns before and never been very happy with the fit. I think these fit well and the way these are put together makes them quick and professional.
Once you get the hang of these you'll never buy leggings again. I've made about 12 pairs and they now take me about 25 minutes start to finish. So worth it!
The Go To Leggings™ sewing pattern comes with full pattern and instructions for girls' leggings sizes 12 months through 12 years. In true Go To Patterns™ style you can choose from four lengths— shorts, capri, full length, and extra long ruched. PLUS there is a bonus skirt pattern and so many different options! Add an attached skirt, a peek-a-boo hole, pocket, elastic ruching or some bows! Complete your first pair in an hour!
I shared with some friends the other day that I think I've worn my kids out when it comes to taking photos. They like to wiggle and make funny faces and never seem to keep their arms down. Thankfully I was able to get a handful of fun pictures though. A special thanks to my girls and our friend who joined us for these photos!
I'm giving away a copy to 4 lucky winners! Please use the rafflecopter below to enter. This contest will be open until November 13th and is available to all world citizens.
This contest is closed. See winners below.

Sewn by YOU: Go To Leggings
Alyssa from Hems To Dolls was a pattern tester for the Go To Leggings and came up with a new variation I didn't include in the pattern (though all the pieces are there so you can certainly duplicate these).
She added the bow to the top of the ruching on the leg. How cute is that?
Go check out Alyssa's blog!

Posts from my pattern testers are starting to pop up! These Go To Leggings (with the attached skirt option) are from Alida Makes. How sweet is this outfit??? She has a tutorial on this post for that sweet LOVE top too. Go check it out and send her some comment & pin love!
Have you ever made leggings? Does it seem worth it to you? I find it to be one of the quickest, most used things I sew.

KCWC Day 5
I'm enjoying Sewing Summit right now so I made these ahead but thought I'd show you a couple more outfits I made this last week.
All of these skirt/legging combos are from the new Go To Leggings pattern soon to be released.
The tank top on the left was self drafted. The tops on the middle outfit are store bought. Outfit on the right was blogged here.
I'll be back next week to tell you all about Sewing Summit!

Day Three: KCWC
Once again I'm making samples for my Kids Clothes Week Challenge. Today we've got a Go To Signature Dress (in the tunic length) paired with some Go To Leggings.
Yes, that skirt is part of the leggings.
I told you this was a "Go To" leggings pattern! These leggings are cropped length. Clearly. There are 4 lengths included in the pattern.
And my favorite feature of this particular version of the Go To Leggings:

Day 1 KCWC: Lucy Tunic & Leggings
I'm joining in with the Kids Clothes Week Challenge over at Elsie Marley. I dug into the stash to make this Lucy Tunic top and Jeggings. I used this plaid cord for a messenger bag last Christmas and had never used it again. When I purchased this fabric I had intentions of using it for a front button up dress. I never made that dress but I think the Lucy Tunic is perfect for thie print.
I was lazy while sewing the buttons on and didn't bother to check where the pattern says to put them so they're a bit low bt this top still functions perfectly.
I lined the top with a hot pink fabric. I decided not to make it reversible by putting buttons on both sides because I don't want to see a hot pink tunic walking around my house.
The leggings are one of the many, many pairs I've been making lately. This fabric was also from JoAnn's but I bought it more recently so you can probably still find it. It is very soft and comfortable.
My new Go To Leggings pattern will be out soon! You can count on lots of fun options.
